Canadian singer Celine Dion has joined the chorus of voices mourning the passing of legendary music producer Quincy Jones. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Dion shared her personal memories of working with Jones, highlighting his mentorship and profound impact on her musical journey.
Dion fondly recalled their collaboration on the Ennio Morricone track “I Knew I Loved You” in 2006, praising Jones’s “profound” musical intuition and ability to help her capture “a little piece of heaven” in her recordings.
Beyond his musical genius, Dion lauded Jones’s commitment to philanthropy, specifically his contributions to the arts, global famine relief, and marginalized youth. Dion collaborated with Jones again in 2010 for the Haiti relief remake of “We Are the World,” a project that brought together a constellation of musical stars.
Dion concluded her tribute with a poignant quote from Jones: “Music is the soul of the universe. It connects us all on a level that words alone cannot reach.” She expressed her hope that his legacy of wisdom and joy will continue to inspire generations to come.
