Requiem Survey, a website established in 2003 by Protestant Christian rector,[1][2] literary scholar[3]: 8  and author[4][5] Kees van der Vloed (born June 9th, 1960),[6] endeavors to categorize all composers and works referring to the Mass for the dead. As of 2019, numbers attained include 3,294 composers and 5,266 works. The specialized website also details van der Vloed's personal music library, which is "focused on work directly related to the Latin text and its implementation excluding evocative work, but as promiscuous as Henze’s Requiem (a cycle of nine sacred concerts), Hindemith (on texts by Whitman) and Weinberg (on texts by various poets including Lorca and Fukagawa)."[7]

The alphabetical survey contains classical, vocal requiems (and their composers), including fragments and unfinished ones in the original Latin text as well as in other languages (e.g., German requiems), requiem-songs, motets and profane requiems. Instrumental works are not included.[8]

Size, readership and site traffic

Since its inception, Requiem Survey has received an audience of more than 75 million readers.[9]
