Abstract: Discusses ways in which secondary elaboration is experienced in dream associations and the development of the musical theme. The case is presented of a male in his 30's who, hampered by ambivalent strivings, began to write music during his analysis and became a professional composer. A parallel between the analytic and the creative process is attempted. (17 ref)

Note: creative process of music during psychoanalysis; male in early 30's
