The coronation of Leopold II in Prague in 1791 came at a difficult time for European monarchs, although Leopold himself enjoyed a reputation as an enlightened ruler. Two musical works were commissioned for the occasion: Mozart's opera 'La clemenza di Tito' and Kozeluch's cantata 'Heil dem Monarchen.' The cantata, by turns celebratory, serene and darkly dramatic, was well-received and enhanced Kozeluch's reputation in royal circles. It almost certainly played a part in his appointment in 1792 to the court of Leopold's son and successor, the last Holy Roman Emperor Franz II.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
