Sean, I highly recommend the arrangements by Gary Slechta. His brass quintet is called Riverbend Brass. You can find the music and CDs online at http://www.selectapress.com A brass ensemble I play in has been playing them for about 15 years and they are a kick to play. I think they are exactly what you are looking for. They are not easy, though, both in terms of rhythm and keys. If you have an intermediate-advanced quintet you will probably love them.
