Annotation: 
    The Calif Of Bagdad Overture is one of Boieldieu's most popular works.  The 
introduction has the melodic charm of Mozart.  The Allegro responds to the 
accepted form, beginning softly and brightly in crisp rhythm which gives way to 
vigorous passages that alternate with lovely, reposeful melodies.  The ending is 
decisive and brilliant.
