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 of Jazz. Through his life-long 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. Rick DellaRatta’s unique and original piano playing and composing has been compared in print to Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Bill Evans, McCoy Tyner, Keith Jarrett, Joe Zawinul, Horace Silver, Oscar Peterson and Thelonious Monk while his signature vocal sound and style has been likened to Chet Baker, Billie Holiday, Joao Gilberto, Ivan Lins, Michael Franks and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Dr. Billy Taylor has been quoted as saying that, "Rick DellaRatta is one of the people who is taking Jazz to the next level." |
