Abstract: Describes how the early infant-mother dynamics of pre-oedipal development are portrayed in a work of poetry, movement, and music. It is suggested that by the conclusion of G. Crumb's "Ancient Voices of Children: A Cycle of Songs on Texts by Garcia Lorca," the audience has experienced a catharsis of pity and fear by reliving their own separation-individuation cycles.
