Released on September 28, 2010, under the Naxos label, this album offers a diverse and engaging musical experience that spans approximately 52 minutes.

Through six charming pieces, Zwilich captures the essence of the beloved characters, from Schroeder's love for Beethoven to Lucy's iconic antics. This suite is a playful and nostalgic addition to the album, showcasing Zwilich's ability to compose music that is both accessible and deeply expressive.
Throughout the album, Zwilich's mastery of orchestration and her keen sense of storytelling shine through, making "Zwilich: Millennium Fantasy - Images - Peanuts Gallery" a compelling and enjoyable listen for both classical music enthusiasts and casual listeners alike.
