Jazz musician Sonny Rollins, known as the "saxophone colossus", has died aged 95.
Spokesperson Terri Hinte said Rollins died at his home in Woodstock, New York, on Monday.
She cited no specific cause of death, but said he had been largely housebound during the last couple of years because of various physical problems.
Rollins was one of the last living greats of the bebop era and - along with John Coltrane and Charlie Parker - one of the most influential saxophonists of his time.
Born Walter Theodore Rollins in New York City, the musician released more than 60 albums as a band leader.
He performed with bands including the Rolling Stones, providing improvisations to three tracks on their 1981 album Tattoo You.
Rollins won two Grammys. His 2001 album This Is What I Do earned him a Grammy award for best jazz instrumental album. He won again in 2006 for best jazz instrumental solo for Why Was I Born?

He was awarded the lifetime achievement award from the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences in 2004.
In 2011 he received the Medal of Arts from President Barack Obama at a White House ceremony.
Rollins continued touring into his 80s until pulmonary fibrosis, a thickening and damaging of the lungs, would eventually force him into retirement.
He played his last concert in 2012 and stopped playing altogether in 2014.
