Composed by Jim Self in 2009 as a class recording project at the USC Thornton School of Music. The entire class of eight tubists played F Tubas.

Tubas: (L-R in Mix) Jon Hansen, Zeewoong Munn, David McLemore, Danny Garcia, Steven Caron, Mike Musick, Lyndsey Hoh, Dave Holben; Drums: Brian Foreman. Conducted by Jim Self and Norm Pearson. Recorded and mixed by Rick Schmunk, w/Michael Musick (asst). Video (in prep) by Danny Garcia.

Woojoo is recorded with four pairs of tubas panned across a 180 degree spectrum. Because of the spatial quality of the music it sounds best on an IPOD or with head phones. Woojoo means "space" in Korean.
