Bassoonist Christin Schillinger and composer Sally Lamb McCune present an audience-centered experience, Rorschach Etudes for Bassoon and Piano. H. Rorschach developed a method in 1921 to assess perception: subjects were asked to identify ten inkblots. In Rorschach Etudes, McCune and Schillinger explore musical perception. Each movement of Rorschach Etudes interprets one of Rorschach’s inkblots – though McCune does not disclose the images used. Rorschach’s ten original images will be projected during Schillinger’s performance.
