| Well, some nice little ditties for a short 20 minute recital:
Turrin Caprice
Ibert Impromptu
Honegger Intrada (Not really a ditty, that!)
Bozza Rustiques
an Arban/Clarke solo such as Bride of the Waves, Carnival of Venice, etc.
Maybe a sonata/concerto
Goedicke Concert Etude
There are, I'm sure, lots of other tunes, too.
Avoiding nerves...I'm not sure that's really what you're looking for. Dealing with them? That's probably more like it. Focus on breathing, think about the MUSIC, and prepare, prepare, prepare.
What you eat can have a big impact, as well. If you search the general trumpet discussion forum, you might find something on diet or nutrition before performance helpful.
