Morelle | M001206 | morelle.house.gov | morelle | https://morelle.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | (Washington, D.C.)—Today, Congressman Joe Morelle announced he delivered remarks on the floor of the House of Representatives in honor of Charles “Chuck” Mangione—a son of Rochester, world-renowned trumpet and flugelhorn player, and an American jazz icon—who passed away recently at the age of 84. His remarks, available below, will appear in the Congressional Record. “I rise today to honor the life and legacy of Rochester’s own Chuck Mangione—a world-class musician whose unique sound carried our city’s spirit to every corner of the globe. Born and raised in Rochester, Chuck never forgot where he came from. From his early days playing alongside his brother Gap as “The Jazz Brothers,” to studying at, and later leading, the Eastman School of Music’s jazz program, Chuck’s commitment to Rochester never wavered. His flugelhorn gave us classics like 'Feels So Good,' earned Grammy awards, and became the soundtrack to unforgettable moments. Here in Rochester, we remember Chuck not just for his fame, but for his generosity, joy, and the pride he shared in our community. He leaves a legacy that will keep our city swinging for generations. May we honor him by celebrating our hometown music the way Chuck always did.” Video footage is available and can be viewed here. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:09:11Z |
