World Music : One World, Many Cultures music CD

Putumayo music CD

Multicultural collaboration between many of the world`s leading musicians. One of Fair Trade`s goals is to introduce people to other cultures as a way of helping to overcome prejudice and bring people of different backgrounds together. Nothing accomplishes this goal like music and this collection will reinforce that idea.
