Matorin of Beldock Levine &amp; Hoffman LLP. The musician had been retired since 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps his biggest hit \u2014 \u201cFeels So Good\u201d \u2014 is a staple on most smooth-jazz radio stations and has been called one of the most recognized melodies since \u201cMichelle\u201d by the Beatles. It hit No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and the top of the Billboard adult contemporary chart.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt identified for a lot of people a song with an artist, even though I had a pretty strong base audience that kept us out there touring as often as we wanted to, that song just topped out there and took it to a whole other level,\u201d Mangione told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>He followed that hit with \u201cGive It All You Got,\u201d commissioned for the 1980 Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, and he performed it at the closing ceremony.<\/p>\n<p>Mangione, a flugelhorn and trumpet player and jazz composer, released more than 30 albums during a career in which he built a sizable following after recording several albums, doing all the writing.<\/p>\n<p>He won his first Grammy Award in 1977 for his album \u201cBellavia,\u201d which was named in honor of his mother. Another album, \u201cFriends and Love,\u201d was also Grammy-nominated, and he earned a best original score Golden Globe nomination and a second Grammy for the movie \u201cThe Children of Sanchez.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_11576739\"  class=\"wp-caption aligncenter size-article_inline\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" lazyautosizes lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.baltimoresun.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Obit-Chuck_Mangione_57032.jpg?fit=620%2C9999px&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"FILE - Flugelhorn player Chuck Mangione rehearses the national anthem before a baseball game between the Los Angeles Angels and New York Yankees, Oct. 24, 2009, in New York.
