Leo Smit, Piano
These are listed as the last two pieces by Aaron Copland in the chronological list of his compositions, though each of them have a double date that I believe means either they were composed or started before they were completed or published or revealed or revised. Proclamation 1973/82 and Midday Thoughts 1944/82.
I think the Ivesian ending of Proclamation is an especially fitting summation of a great American composer's works.
I'm not sure how far I'm going to take this but it could turn into a series.
