Hello,
I couldn't find the exact answer, but these two links below make me
think of Rachmaninoff as Young's inspirer:

Not sure about the classical theme but heres the lyrics:

Stella by Starlight 
- words by Ned Washington, music by Victor Young 

The song a robin sings 
Through years of endless springs 
The murmur of a brook at eventide 
That ripples by a nook where two lovers hide 
A great symphonic theme 
That's Stella by starlight and not a dream 
My heart and I agree 
She's everything on earth to me
