<p>A larger, more public memorial is also being planned.</p>
<p>ADVERTISEMENT<br />
The family of the 28-time Grammy-winning producer, arranger and composer said in a statement to The Associated Press the “intimate ceremony included Mr Jones’ seven children, his brother, two sisters, and immediate family members”.</p>
<p>The family did not reveal the cemetery where the ceremony took place.</p>

<p>They added that they remain “enormously grateful for the outpouring of condolences and tributes from his friends and fans from around the world. Details for a memorial celebration of Mr. Jones’ life will be announced at a later date”.</p>
<p>Jones died surrounded by his family at his home in the Bel Air section of Los Angeles in November.</p>
<p>His seven decades of musical mastery included producing Michael Jackson’s Thriller album, writing prize-winning film scores and collaborating on classic recordings with Frank Sinatra, Ray Charles and hundreds of others.</p>
<p>Tributes to him after his death came from some of the biggest figures in media and politics.</p>
<p>Saturday Night Live, which he once hosted, paid tribute to him a night before his service with a memorial photo in a quiet moment of the show.</p>
<p>In lieu of flowers, Jones’ family asks for donations to the Jazz Foundation of America.</p>
