His last major show was Passion, but technically it was The Frogs, which he wrote new music for in addition to some stuff he'd written years ago.

The one score of a show I wish Sondheim had written is Sunset Boulevard, Billy Wilder told him the show could only be done as an opera so he refused to musicalize the film. He would have created a brilliant piece.
The Light in the Piazza already has a great composer and I'm very much glad Adam Guettel composed this show, it proves that there's still some great composers doing great work out there.
