Karen Evans Moratz  is an accomplished musician who is the principal flutist with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, author of the bestselling book Flute For Dummies, and an adjunct instructor of flute and an Artist-in-Residence at Butler University’s Jordan College of the Arts.

She has studied and performed all over the world, and is extremely active in her community, as the founding member of both the Greater Indianapolis Flute Club and the Indianapolis Baroque Orchestra, as well as being the former coordinator of the National Flute Association’s Young Artist Competition.

In addition to her passion for music she’s also a yoga instructor, teaching at several yoga studios in Indianapolis and incorporating mind/body techniques when she teaches flute to her students.

On this episode, host Angela de Burger chats with Karen about how she was drawn to the flute, her love of languages (she speaks four!), and why she connects with yoga and music in such a meaningful way.
