The authors describe music therapy group work. They discuss developments in music therapy during the last 50 years, focusing on the practice of music therapy in groups and the ways analytic
thinking has evolved within music therapy; the development of group work in music therapy in the UK; core concepts in group analysis, including interconnectedness, psychoanalytic processes,
group-specific processes, the socializing process, and the role of the conductor, as well as the mother and “other” approaches; group music therapy in the early years and in terms of
attachment; and clinical perspectives, including clinical vignettes, co-therapy, and experiential groups in training. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
