| | | APSA_NY12-304 | | Symposium I: El Sistema/Abreu Fellows, and Psychoanalysis: Beyond the Concert Hall and Consulting Room Speakers: Julie Jaffee Nagel, PhD (Ann Arbor, MI); Marie Montilla (Pittsfield, MA); Patrick Slevin (Austin, TX); Michael Slevin, MSW (Baltimore, MD) Like psychoanalysis, Western classical music is, in some quarters, thought to be esoteric and elitist. Orchestras struggle to retain aging audiences and bring in the young. El Sistema USA and the Abreu Fellows transplant an idea that grew from 11 music students to a vibrant institution teaching 300,000 of Venezuela’s poorest children. Music, study and performance, transforms individuals and their communities through self-knowledge and self-esteem — core goals of psychoanalysis. Brief presentations by two El Sistema/Abreu musician/organizers and a psychoanalyst/musician are integrated with audio/visual materials to illustrate synergy between music and psychoanalysis. | | MP3 | | $10.00 | | $10.00 | |
| | | APSA_NY12-203 | | Candidates' Forum: Developing Psychoanalytic Cases and the Candidates Who Will Work with Them Speakers: Elizabeth Brett, PhD (Woodbridge, CT); Allan Frosch, PhD (New York, NY); Alan Z. Skolnikoff, MD (San Francisco, CA); Moderator: Phoebe A. Cirio, MSW, LCSW (St. Louis, MO); Arden Rothstein, PhD (New York, NY) This session discusses approaches to helping candidates develop psychoanalytic cases, while experiencing a sense of agency and preserving morale. Following Dr. Rothstein’s presentation of an individualized tutorial program that she initiated, and her study of its impact upon participants, panel members convey their institutes’ approaches to case and candidate development. Subjective factors in assessment of analyzability — e.g., the match of candidate and analysand, and differences in supervisory perspective — are considered.
