What about taking some opera male choruses more or less wholesale.

Out of my head I seem to remember a sailors chorus from Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer and a soldiers chorus from Gounod’s Faust.

I am not 100% positive, but I seem to remember that O Isis und Osiris from Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte has a 3 part male chorus. And then your bass tuba can do Sarastro’s solo in that aria.

If you want a real challenge, then let your quartet play the opening cello quartet of Rossini’s Wilhelm Tell overture.
