Quincy passed away at age 91 at his home in Bel Air, Calif., surrounded by his children, siblings and close family, his publicist Arnold Robinson confirmed to NBC News.

His career spanned over seven decades and included 28 Grammy wins, an Emmy and a Tony. In addition, he was the first African American to earn an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song in 1968. He would later receive an honorary Oscar in 1995.

“We take comfort and immense pride in knowing that the love and joy, that were the essence of his being, was shared with the world through all that he created,” his family said in a statement obtained by NBC News. “Through his music and his boundless love, Quincy Jones’ heart will beat for eternity.”
