Abstract: A case study describes therapy with a young psychotic male patient. Significant stages in the treatment are examined from the perspective of both co-therapist and patient. After two and a half years of behavior-centered music therapy, the idea of relationship became a central theme for a period of nine months. Dealing musically and emotionally with the problem areas "mother" and "girlfriend", "we" and "I", the patient was able to sound his own notes and discover that earlier behavioral patterns were inadequate. He thus began to look for new paths. (author)
