About
The Coronation Mass is, along with the Requiem, Mozart’s most often played sacred work. Its nickname, which was not given by Mozart, had its roots in the coronation of Emperor Leopold II in Frankfurt in 1790, and was provided by none other than Salieri! This work attains the loftiest perfection in the smallest possible space, combining simple expression with a complex modulatory technique. The purity of the work is comparable to certain parts of the Requiem.
