BALLORO! Post your Top 100 Notated Pieces of Music Since 1890 poll ballots here!

Here's mine! Things that didn't place are bolded. Janacek, Nielsen (the 5th, people!!!), Koechlin and Crumb not placing particularly guts me. Herrmann obviously fell prey to vote splitting. Prokofiev has three works in my 100 and didn't place at all, super surprising. And despite the strong Debussy showing, no Pelleas, rly?
