I didn't read anything about pieces to study or anything about an audition. Although we never truly master the excerpts you listed, Jay, it's good to branch out and listen to some of the more non-traditional, often ignored pieces of worth. An exposure to varying styles and eras can only strengthen the study of the pedantic Bruckner excerpts for example. A tuba player who studies only the excerpts that everyone will recognize when he pounds them out at the next tuba convention is not only robbing himself of a well-rounded exposure to his art, but is also limiting himself musically. I guess we read the request differently.
