摘要：On December 7thI received a short e-mail from Alan Turry about the news of Clive's passing. It was a big shock for me, as I only spoke to Clive two weeks prior to this date. In our last phone conversation, and despite the 14 hours time difference between New York and Japan, Clive said to me with his usual humour: "Kana, you sound so close. This thing (Skype) is great! It makes the world smaller!" This was the last conversation I had with Clive. Clive's first visit to Japan took place in 1984. He and Carol Robbins were invited by the Japanese Anthroposophical Association and the Yasuda Insurance Company, both of which were interested in the power of music in mental health. On their first visit, Clive and Carol travelled from Tokyo to Hiroshima (Prof Yu Wakao), Kofu (Dr Toshikazu Matsui), Osaka (Prof Tadafumi Yamamatsu) and then back to some universities in Tokyo (with Dr Yasuji Murai and Prof Hitoshi Sakurabayashi). Their visit made a great impact on the Japanese music therapy scene as the professional history of this field in Japan had only started in the late 1960s. With the help of two great translators; the first Nordoff-Robbins graduate from London: Harumi Suzuki (nee Koyama) and the great Shakuhachi master: Christopher Blasdel, Clive and Carol's lectures and workshops were very successful and provided (and still provide) a great nourishment for the Japanese music therapy field
