A Psychoanalytic Dialogue with the Music of Bach

In a rich and thought-provoking paper, psychoanalyst Anthea Gomez explores the links between the two, using Bach’s Chaconne from the Partita in D minor for solo violin, Hanna Segal’s Theory of Aesthetics and contemporary writings on music and the Unconscious. Musical illustrations of these explorations will be played by violinist Sara Trickey, who will then perform the Chaconne in its entirety.

Afterwards, the audience will be invited to join the conversation and ask questions.
