A good resource for decades of Salvation Army recordings: http://www.salvoaudio.com/bands/country_index_band.htm In particular, listen to Enfield, Chalk Farm and the International Staff Band from the UK; Chicago and New York staff bands from the US; the Canadian staff band; Amsterdam staff band. The UK, European and American bands sound quite different to each other but still classic brass band. A good place to start is maybe here with Quintessence: http://www.salvoaudio.com/bands/symphony_praise_band.htm and on the same link ' A Better World' gives some idea of the euphonium sound and how it differs from concert band euphonium. For other UK brass bands google for Williams Fairey Engineering Band, Black Dyke Mills Band, Fodens Brass Band.
