E131 - Rick Della Ratta - Jazz for Peace

Rick DellaRatta is considered by many to be one of the finest Singer/Pianists performing today and one of only a handful of Jazz artists who can make a successful musical presentation to a large audience without having to abandon the true art form of Jazz. Through his lifelong endeavor to help advance people to their highest potential through the understanding of Jazz as well as spreading peace worldwide through his “Jazz for Peace World Tour”, Rick DellaRatta is considered to be an innovator and a visionary.   So why have we got Rick on our podcast well…… Rick believes the study and performance of music not only stimulates the intellect, it has a historically proven ability to have a profoundly positive effect on a child’s life. He wants to play a part in introducing children to the world's greatest art form as well as bringing live music and music programs back into the schools.     Where to find Rick www.linkedin.com/in/rick-dellaratta-08199818/ www.jazzforpeace.org/educationseries.html www.jazzforpeace.wordpress.com
