So...I posted twice, so I'm gonna use this extra post and list some pieces I really like. We had to make a list like this in my Methods class (the full class title is "Music Methods for the Elementary and Secondary Schools", basically music ed stuff.)
Here's the list I came up with:
First Suite in E-flat
Flag of Stars (my professor actually hadn't heard of this piece, and it shocked me!)
Postcard
Armenian Dances
October
Suite of Old American Dances
Symphonic Movement
Blue Shades
American Salute
Overture to "Candide"
Now, this list is pretty much based off of pieces I've played or atleast sightread, so it's kind of limited, but these are some of my favorite pieces out there for Wind Ensembles.
