Tuba Choir lit

i've just inherited the tuba choir at my university. the guy they had leading this ensemble before me was really bad at his job and the choir only had about 5 pieces all of which were beginner tuba choir rep or simply brass quintet music (he didn't understand that when a euphonium player says "i'm good at transposing" they dont usually mean from french horn music) so my question is what is some good tuba/euph choir literature that i should get for the ensemble? i'm looking for good music regardless of genre but would really like to stay away from cheesy stuff like "the pink panther"
