"You perform best if you feel relaxed, accepted, loved and appreciated. So you have to build this environment for yourself and that takes a lot of work," says Karin Bonelli, flutist at the Vienna Philharmonic. Karin is talking about the program they are developing where they help flutists to prepare themselves and be confident for auditions. The team consists of a mental trainer, physical trainer, doctor and Karin herself is teaching the artistic side.
