OK, you guys fill the rest.
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

[Matisse] was interested neither in fending off opposition,
nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.
His only competition was with himself. — Françoise Gilot

Oh dear...this could be quite difficult as Stockhausen lived from 1928 - 2007. But here goes nothing:

Delius: Violin Sonata No. 3 (1930)
RVW: Symphony No. 5 (1938-43)
Bartok: Piano Concerto No. 3 (1945)
Ravel: Piano Concerto in G (1929-31)
Britten: Sinfonia da Requiem (1940)

And this list could have gone on and on.

Agree with all of these but don't know the Delius.

Would add:

Vaughan Williams: Symphony 6
Shostakovich: Symphony 10
Sibelius's 'Tapioa' is a couple of years too early to be included.
"Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm" (Churchill).

'The test of a work of art is, in the end, our affection for it, not our ability to explain why it is good' (Stanley Kubrick).

Anything Ligeti wrote beyond age 5.

Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

Didn't want to list all of Feldman's works, so I listed my top 4 only.

Oh, I wouldn't go that far.  I'm fond of Gesang der Junglinge. :)

But it's a shame on us that no one has yet mentioned Varese's Poeme Electronique or Deserts.. ;D Or, for something in a completely different vein, Hovhaness' "Mysterious Mountain" Symphony.
