I love what you've shared here - completely agree.

What is your recommendations for the harp writing at 19:26 here: th-cam.com/video/fBeeBouootc/w-d-xo.html

Or the same movement at 21:01. I guess it's not bad but maybe not the best?

[@daniellekuntz]

Personally, I would put this section all on the top staff.

This isn't too bad, but I wouldn't mind having it all on the top staff. I might play a few of the notes as octaves within a hand, rather than just parallel arpeggios. Combining it onto one staff provides more flexibility.
