About the album:
Merging the culinary, literary, and visual art worlds, Brooklyn-based flutist Annie Wu’s latest classical album Not Too Sweet — named after the cheeky Chinese phrase for the perfect dessert — presents flute music through a dessert- and diasporic- lens. With an autobiographical approach to her curation, including movie soundtracks from her childhood and vocal arrangements exploring nostalgia and memory, Wu brings an intimate, personal sound, story, and look to tunes made even sweeter by shadows of some more complicated flavors.
