There are two kinds of orchestral praise albums - those who take a Classical music approach and arrange the choruses and hymns as it they were fully orbed symphonic works and those who's arrangement ideas produce music that sound like it was designed for hotel lobbies. This is the latter, hymns like "Amazing Grace", "How Great Thou Art" and "In The Garden" orchestrated in Mantovani style lushness. Utterly anonymous elevator music so that it's hardly surprising 'Peaceful Moments" origins aren't revealed on the sleeve.
