In response to your questions, I would have t almost say yes to all of your concerns. Depending on the alloy, brass can be tig welded,brazed, soldered. If you can justify the extra time in fit up- I would always go with either tig or silver solder. I like solder because it is strong and with a tight joint the resulting line that you would see is minimal. This also greatly depends on the design, material size, etc... Suffice it to say that it can be a bear of a job, but I need more info to be of any help.
Also, check into Farmers Copper for alloys and such. I have worked with them a couple of times and they were great.
