Your Top 5 Cello music

[saxovocal]

I was looking into the thread 'Your Top 5 favourite music' and decided that it was too broad of a domain, so I restricted it to cello music. Wanted to see how you guys think.

Here's my hierachy:
1) Brahms Op.38 Cello Sonata in E minor
2) Shostakovich Cello Concerto No. 2 in G major
3) Bach Cello suites Nr. 3
4) Britten Cello suites Nr.3
5) Beethoven Cello Sonata Nr. 3 Op. 69 in A major

Enjoy!

Can we exclude the prelude from Bach's cello suite no. 1?

Beethoven: Duet "With Two Eyeglasses Obbligatto" for Viola and Cello in E-flat major
Lalo: Cello Concerto in D minor
