US jazz drummer Jack DeJohnette, a major figure in modern jazz who collaborated with Miles Davis and Keith Jarrett, has died at 83, his management said on Monday.
"It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Jack DeJohnette. He died peacefully in Kingston Hospital, NY. He was surrounded by his wife, family, and close friends," a post on his Instagram said.
His personal assistant Joan Clancy confirmed that he died on Sunday from congestive heart failure in Kingston Hospital, New York state.
