Flautist Yu-Wei Hu has quickly established herself as one of the most sought after traverso players on the international stage. Her love of early music was born in her native Taiwan and further developed during her studies at the Royal College of Music in the UK. As a resident of London, she has performed at several of the major festivals and concert halls such as the BBC Proms in the Royal Albert Hall, the Southbank Centre and the Royal Opera House Covent Garden.

She is also active as a soloist and chamber musician, not least through Flauguissimo Duo with Swedish Johan Löfving, who together have given acclaimed concerts all over the world and recorded critically acclaimed albums.

Since growing up in Lennartsfors, Värmland, Johan Löfving has been praised internationally for his communicative music-making and unique playing style. After taking his first musical steps with Lars Eriksson at Årjäng's Municipal Music School, Johan continued his studies in London and Salzburg. As a soloist, chamber and orchestra musician, he regularly performs worldwide and has appeared on stages such as Wigmore Hall in London and Konzertsaal der Wiener Sängerknaben in Vienna.

Together with Yu-Wei Hu, Johan is the other half of Flauguissimo, one of the fastest rising early music ensembles 

Johan's first solo album Fandango! was praised by critics as 'clearly one of the best albums and players of recent times' (This is Classical Guitar).
