I'd recommend the Dennis Wright book, something like 'scoring for brass 
band'  Even though it is woefully out of date, it'll get you started.

Eb sop
4 solos
rep
2 2nds
2 3rds

Flugel
Solo, 1st, 2nd Eb tenorhorns

1st 2nd baritones

1st 2nd tenor trombones
bass trombone (2 plugs)

2 euphs
2 EEb basses
2 BBb Basses
  <all written in treble clef apart from bass trom)
3 percussion
