Hello -
Regarding your question with sticking in the WTC Fugues, i would recommend that each voice is assigned to a particular mallet, similiar to the sticking patterns found in the Stevens transcriptions of the Bach Violin Sonatas.
When breaking this piece down, i recommend that you practice each voice seperately then combine all the voices. This will allow you to really focus on the technical aspects and examine closely what you are doing.
I think this would make a good audition piece. Anything of Bach, whether its a Cello Suite, Violin Sonata or a WTC Fugue would make a solid audition choice. I do agree with you that you should pair the WTC Fugue with a modern marimba piece of the same length, such as one or two Helble preludes and/or a couple of Gordon Stout's Etudes.
Best of luck in your studies.
Sincerely, Lon Stetz
