Featuring Jazz for Peace founder Rick DellaRatta, the CD includes some of the greatest names in jazz, as well as the London Symphony Orchestra. DellaRatta said, "I'm proud and driven to promote this cause and mission-for each individual to reach their own soul's potential-through an awareness of Jazz and a respect for worldwide peace."

The Jazz for Peace CD is only available online, directly from the organization's web site, at www.jazzforpeace.org/onlinestore.html.

DellaRatta's credits include a recent naming as one of the top 500 all-time jazz vocalists by Scott Yanow in his new book, The Jazz Singers, set for release this year.
