You really can't do much without a drummer or bass player, but I suggest song for my father by horace silver. Great melody.

Here is an idea(only because its my favorite song), Birdland-Maynard Ferguson. It depends on you trumpet players range. I'm a freshman playing the song so it should be easy song for ya'll. If you look into it, make sure you get the original music. None of that shorter crap lol. It pretty easy on Keyboard, Guitar and Trumpet(in my opinion. i play all three)

You should look at good jazz standards such as That's All, In The Mood, and Moonlight Serenade. The band Spyro Gyra has pleasant songs to play like Catching The Sun and Carnival. For the range of instruments that you have, the music by the band Chicago has great parts for everyone and you should check them out.
