Jazz Great Freddie Hubbard Dies at 70
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Grammy-winning jazz musician Freddie Hubbard, whose style influenced a generation of trumpet players, has died at age 70.
Hubbard’s manager, David Weiss, says the musician died Monday at Sherman Oaks Hospital in Los Angeles. He had been hospitalized since suffering a heart attack last month.
Although he had been in declining health in recent years, Hubbard continued to perform until just a few months ago. Known for both the intensity of his playing, as well as his melodic style, Hubbard’s last concert was in June in New York at a party celebrating the release of his final album.
He won a Grammy in 1972 for best jazz performance by a group for the album “First Light.”
