Kevin's suggestion about pieces with descants is a great place to start.
Another trick for "instant" descants it to take the tenor or bass line up
two octaves, not perfect but a decent place to start and you can fill out a
descant from there.

Also look for any pieces that may have a solo cello, bassoon or horn part,
that's the range I generally play in and it seems to blend well with vocal
ensembles.

Show the instrument off to the composition students too, a suite for harp
ensemble with theremin would be so very cool.

good luck and please keep us posted on your discoveries.
