Bb instruments sound a tone lower than the note they think they're playing (why they don't just call it a different note is beyond me ...), and they tend not to like playing in sharp keys. However if you're at concert pitch C, they'll play in D quite happily. If you go to C# (which you can think of it that way if you like), you can also call it Db. It means the brass will have to play in Eb, and I think they will like it
How you achieve the key change: you could do it subtly by various modulations (C->F-.Bb->Eb->Ab->Db) or you could do it abruptly which IMO will have the sudden excitement lift you're looking for.

Either stay the same or go up one (semi tone to c# or full tone to D) It's to do with the notation I think, the range of instruments which transpose fit better onto the five lines of the staff if you transpose them down various intervals without having to have loads of ledger lines above or below the normal staff

The notation is way more flexible than instrument design

C | D | E | F#7 | B
...this way you have a handful of whole-tone lifts, before the F#7 resolves to the B. I'm not at home at the moment so haven't tested it, but think it should work.
