Some classics which you missed:

Susan Cooper's _The Dark is Rising_ pentalogy
Jack Vance's _Lyonesse_ trilogy, also his _Dying Earth_ books
Ursula K. LeGuin's _Earthsea_ trilogy
Lord Dunsany --- pretty much everything, but especially _The Charwoman's Shadow_ which in many ways prefigures _The Lord of the Rings_

Not classics (yet IMO), but also enjoyable are:

Roger Zelazny - _The Chronicles of Amber_ (also his Dilvish books)
Steven Brust's Taltos novels
C.J. Cherryh's Morgaine novels as well as _The Dreaming Tree_ and _The Tree of Swords and Jewels_
Megan Lindholm's _Cloven Hooves_
Robin McKinley - _The Blue Sword_ and the balance of that series
