This comprehensive survey of requiem music provides detailed information on 250 requiems. Each entry includes a biography of the composer and a description of the composition. Details of voicing, orchestration, editions and discography are given.

Traditional requiem texts, among them the anonymous medieval Latin poem Dies Irae ("Day of Wrath"), have inspired an untold number of composers in different ages and serving different religions, Western and Eastern. This book, the first comprehensive survey of requiem music for nearly half a century, provides a great deal of diverse and detailed information that will be of use to the professional musician, the musical scholar, the choral conductor, the theologian and liturgist, and the general reader.
