Le Calife de Bagdad - François-Adrien Boieldieu

Franois-Adrien Boieldieu (1775-1834) is considered as the one of themost important representatives of the French opra-comique. His styleis characterised by natural, unembellished melody lines, straightforwardharmonies with refined orchestration. In 1800, Boieldieu achieved a major triumph with Le Calife de Bagdad. The opening is a true classic of this genre.
