Clojure and Scheme are very different languages in the Lisp family.

I see Kawa as an option if you need JVM, and you know you want Scheme.

From another direction: If the situation is that you have to be heavily integrated into a Java environment (at the library/linking level, not microservices, etc.), such as due to enterprise legacy systems, tech policy, or maybe an embedded system... but you'd get big wins by using a non-Java language with that... then I suppose your options might include Clojure, Scala, and maybe Kawa. (Maybe other options right now; one would have to look into it.)
