If you're after choral music, go with "God is Gone Up", "Magnificat" and "Lo, the Full Final Sacrifice" (the last of these is a quite epic fourteen minutes long). To be honest, though, it's all about his Cello Concerto, Clarinet Concerto, Five Bagatelles for Clarinet and the quite fabulous "Eclogue" for piano and string orchestra.
