In 1974, Paul Nordoff and Clive Robbins engaged in their final and most extensive teaching collaboration at a hospital in southeast London. The entire six-month course was audiotaped and the transcripts provide the source of this study which illuminates the foundations of this seminal approach to creative music therapy. The conceptual and theoretical dimensions are presented through a traditional expository format and the more personalized values and world views of these two pioneers are presented through the narrative device of theme statements. In all cases, Paul Nordoff and Clive Robbins speak directly to the reader through the use of extended quotations taken from their spontaneous interactions with the students on the course. 1996 (ISBN 1-891278-37-1) 78 pages, $20.
