I just feel like I'm missing something and want to broaden my musical knowledge.
I'm sure there are many, many pieces.

leroy anderson's music.  just listened to the C major piano concerto on WRTI and it's one of my favorites.

            Some of August Durand's music. When I was in Brazil, I bought this book from France, with the copyright of 1892. Pretty old, but has a lot of awesome musics by the composer.

Alkan, symphony pour piano solo

I guess you haven't been around this forum too long because there are some people who seem to think Alkan is better than either Chopin or Liszt, and especially his "symphonie".
