Unfortunately The Charlier book has been on back order for sometime, and they called to see what the deal was. It will not be here in time, so I have to find some other means of getting it. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!
And again, thank you all for the helpful responses.

David,
I'm going to make this easy for you
Here are two excerpt books. Both contain excerpts that would be great for your audition. Pick one and buy it.
Norris-TOP 50 ORCHESTRAL AUDITION EXCERPTS CICHOWICZ-ORCHESTRAL EXCERPTS FOR TRUMPET
The Norris has a helpful intro and paragraph or two explaining each excerpt. The Cichowicz book includes a piano accompaniment for each excerpt, which would be helpful if you have not had the opportunity to play these excerpts in an orchestra.
You can buy them through the website or call them. I've dealt with Portland Sheet Music before and they do a great job. Oh yeah, here's the
Charlier. Order these as soon as you can. A month sounds like a long time, but it's not. Good luck.
