I've just gone through this list of major works I am singing in this year - here it's is:

Rachmaninov - All-Night Vigil
Rossini - Petite Messe Solenelle
Berlioz - Grande Messe de Morts
Vaughan-Williams - Sea Symphony
Tippett - A Child of Our Time
Mendelssohn - St Paul
Elgar - The Dream of Gerontius
Janáček - Glagolitic Mass
Mozart - Mass in C minor
Vaughan-Williams - Serenade to Music
Finzi - Dies Natalis
Howells - Hymnus Paradisi
Mendelssohn - Elijah
Bach - Christmas Oratorio

Not bad for a hobby  :)
What a terrific selection of works!
The Finzi, Howells, Janacek, Tippet and VW Sea Symphony are great favourites of mine.

I love the Sea Symphony - it's a great pleasure to sing in.
