Al Jarreau, a versatile vocalist who sold millions of records and won numerous Grammys for his work in pop and R&B as well as his first love, jazz, died on Sunday in Los Angeles. He was 76.

His death was announced by his manager, Joe Gordon, who said Mr. Jarreau had been hospitalized for exhaustion two weeks ago.

In lieu of flowers, Jarreau’s family is asking that donations be made to the Wisconsin Foundation for School Music, which offers scholarships and music opportunities to students living in his hometown of Milwaukee.
