Just as something to break up the program, I like O Isis and Osiris. Not too long, not too high, not too loud or fast. But it's very musically satisfying when done well.

Another fun one might be Yakety Tuba. Maybe you could take the sax part & read it for tuba, and get a couple of other musicians (banjo, piano, bass and drums, maybe?) to help you out.

A good old jazz standard with a piano, bass & drums works well, too. Something like 'Round Midnight or Perdido.

Just make sure to pay your accompanists in either money or libations (many accept either currency...).

Might try an arrangement of Summertime.

Just a few off-the-cuff thoughts...
