Thanks for the help.  Actually, I found that it was "Piano Sonata No. 11 in A Major, KV331: Andante Grazioso".

Actually, that is the same.

Well, you said ("Alla Turca") and that is part three, not the 1st movement.

Only because the entire work has acquired that nickname, even though only the 3rd movement is a "Rondo alla Turca". Which is why I hate nicknames... :-\

So, no-one has any clues as to what this tune might be?  It sounds like either a Mozart or Chopin piano sonata, but I went through five CDs the other night on Rhapsody listening to the various Mozart sonatas and came up empty.  As mentioned before, this classical tune is from the 1980 film, FAME.  Luckily, it played the whole thing clearly without interruption.

Thanks, I'll look his music up on Rhapsody in hopes that I come across the tune.

I can tell you it's not Asturias, Mallorca, Cordoba, or anything from the "Iberia" suite...
