Ken,
I only recently am involved in a quintet and we haven't done the arnold yet. But I do know the John Paynter (recently deceased conductor of Northwestern Band) arranged Arnold's Little Suite for Brass for Band under the title : Prelude, Siciliano, and Rondo. Although it is not too challenging of a piece, it is a great work. My quintet did Ewald's second quintet. I loved it, you should look in to that (we also did Music for Brass Instruments by Ingolf Dahl...another fantastic quintet (even though I had to play the bass bone part on tuba.)
good luck
jeff
