Question What are some great jazz standards for grade 11's?

Me and a couple friends want to start jamming at noon hours (we've got two clarinets, a trombone, a flute, a french horn, an alto sax, and myself, a trumpet), and I was wondering what a few good jazz standards for us would be. I think only two or three of us actually like jazz, so it might just be me, the sax, and possibly the trombone or a clarinet. We like fast paced tunes, funk, etc, but anything is great. So far I have the music for Tenor Madness and Take the "A" Train. What are your favourites?

not a standard, but with flute and french horn, you may be insterested listening
Gil Evans's arrangement for Miles Davis, like the album "Miles Ahead".

Autumn Leaves is a nice tune to play on.

C Jam Blues, (Duke Ellington) allows many solos...12 bar rifts etc..fun for all.
Satin Doll
Bernie's Tune
Woodchoppers Ball
Mack the Knife
My Funny Valentine/Summertime - slow ballads, allow improv.
