    Hi, Folks -

    Written in 1970 or earlier by British film composer Stanley Myers (1930-1993), it was originally a piano piece - but at classical guitarist John Williams' request or invitation, Myers arranged it for guitar, and the John Williams version was being played and perhaps recorded by 1970.

    It reached #20 on the UK charts in 1979, following the release of Michael Cimino's 1978 Academy Award-winning film, "The Deer Hunter", for which this was the primary theme.

    Versions of the song have also been recorded with lyrics by British jazz great, Cleo Laine, usually under the title "He Was Beautiful". The song is also on Paul Potts' debut album, "One Chance", as "She Was Beautiful."

    Here's John Williams with "Cavatina".
