"Swing Low" is a classic album of Negro spirituals for orchestra - and Percy captures the emotions perfectly through the voice of the orchestra. Divorced from their usual words, Percy leaves no doubt they are giants of American musical heritage uniquely heard instrumentally, with the majestic sound of the full Faith orchestra.
"A Look At Monaco," a 1962 CBS television special, proves that Percy could write for buildings, elephants, children and more - his imagination was vivid throughout. This really is a soundtrack complete with narration from Princess Grace, with Percy's arrangements played by the Orchestra National De L'Opera De Monte Christo. Great fun to listen to the imagination captured through Percy's original soundtrack. The pure creative side of Percy's writing is perhaps never showcased better than it is here. (Bill Halvorsen)
