John Williams Plays Spanish Music [1970]


Columbia Masterworks M 30057 

The virtuosic skills on acoustic guitarist of John Williams have allowed him to move far beyond classical music genres and audiences in his long career. Even for those who don't know him by name or confuse him with the film score composer of the same name, they are probably familiar with his recording of Cavatina, used in the film The Deer Hunter (1978), which is just one facet of his musical interests.
