Zusatztext
'An amazing combination of the most sophisticated, technically documented and profound psychoanalytic reflection on music, with a "musical" and sensitive description of psychoanalytic concepts and processes. By far the most advanced exploration today in this specific area, based on the author’s high expertise in both fields.'
Stefano Bolognini, Past President of the International Psychoanalytical Association
