Chick Corea, who shared his jazz genius with the likes of Carlos Santana and Herbie Hancock, has died at the age of 79.
His career spanned almost six decades and his last album was released last year.
Corea is the fourth most nominated artist in the Grammy Awards’ history with 65 nominations, winning 23 times.
Corea played with Miles Davis in the late 1960s and his own group, Return to Forever, were at the forefront of the jazz fusion movement.
He was also known around the world for his work as a composer with hits like Spain and 500 Miles High.
He died on 9 February from a rare form of cancer.
Last November, Corea said he had spent lockdown taking on new projects and was looking forward to playing in front of a live audience again.
