you should refrain from double posting in the futre, i would have posted this int he repertoire board but i figured you woud prob check this one vs the other. just becuase you dont get a reply, or the one you want, or many, or immedidate reply doesn't mean posting again will make a difference, some folks have soemthing to say others it can take awhile to sift through and work their way to it. in the futre if i see a similar double post i'lljust abstain from replying all together but i thought it at least fair to point this out and try to help you with what i hope is a somewhat helpful response.

it's not a 'top three' for me but these are still quite lovely, tried to go off the beaten path for you, but it is very pretty and has been floating around in my secondary futures' list for about a year, the difficulty with this one seems to be making it interesting the 2nd time around both times for each section when it repeats.

exceedingly difficult for 'mere mortals' with less than ginourmoushands, those constant 10ths are incredibly difficult to maintain throughout and still phrase and sing them if you have to resort to 'rolling' them, he made a simpler versino but i have not found a recording or score (though my score for this one confirms the existance of such animal).  source material is bach, grainer took to further to really nice effect

thank you myra hess

this is another transcription of the cantata that served as a basis for the grainger concert work, this is my favorite rendition of this,

as one yt'er commented, if aliens came to destroy our planet, our world leaders would do well to show them this video as reason to spare our planet!
