Cavatina is a 1970 classical guitar piece by British composer Stanley Myers written for the film The Walking Stick (1970), and popularised as the theme from The Deer Hunter some eight years later. As the Italian diminutive of cavata, cavatina is a musical term frequently applied to any simple, melodious air.

The piece had been recorded by classical guitarist John Williams, long before the film that made it famous. Cleo Laine wrote lyrics and recorded the song as He Was Beautiful, accompanied by Williams. It has been recorded since by many guitarists, such as Leona Boyd, Angel Romero, Norbert Kraft.

Derek Broadbent's arrangements caught my soul when I was playing the flügelhorn solo in a brass band, so I decided to transcribe it for a brass quintet, having less players around but still being able to celebrate this wonderful composition and arrangement.

A sweet, lovely ballad made popular by guitarist John Williams and Cleo Laine, this piece by Stanley Meyers was made famous in the film score to The Deer Hunter. Arranged for string quaret, this would be a perfect piece for a wedding processional or simply for prenuptial or reception music.  There are plenty of places for making cuts to adjust the legnth to suit or adding repeats, however in this arrangement I have included both bridges for a long play version if desired.  With all repeats, it is about 5 minutes long.

Cavatina is a 1970 classical guitar piece by British composer Stanley Myers based on music originally written for the soundtrack of the film 'The Walking Stick'(1970). After Myers expanded the piece and it was recorded by guitarist John Williams, Cavatina was popularized as the theme from the 1978 film 'The Deer Hunter'. In 1973, Cleo Laine wrote lyrics to Cavatina and recorded her version under the title He Was Beautiful. After the release of 'The Deer Hunter' in 1978, Williams' instrumental version became a UK Top 20 hit in 1979. This new arrangement is based on a choral version created by Roderick Williams. Perfect for a concert of film music or for a quiet interlude at any time of year.

This evocative 1970's work was originally written for the piano.  At the request of classical guitarist John Williams, Myers re-scored it for guitar.  This version was then used for the 1970 film The Walking Stick.  Jazz singer Dame Cleo Laine in 1973 wrote the lyrics He Is Beautiful.  Producer Mike Deeley used it in the 1978 film The Deer Hunter.  

This simple air is a wonderful addition to the smaller British Brass Band's repertoire as it works well with a minimum of 9 parts (11 players) up to a full band.  Duration ~ 3:30.

Dreamsville was one of the most memorable melodies from Henry Mancini's Peter Gunn soundtrack album.

The lush, melody with simple but romantic lyrics is a favorite of late night jazz performers. This SATB with piano accompaniment will be a welcome treat for your audience and display the mature ability of your chorus
