Certain cetaceans, such as male humpback whales, give off sounds resembling mournful songs. These sounds have already been recorded on CDs and can be found on many websites. Their range is very close to that of the human voice and certain instruments like the duduk, an ancient Armenian flute.

The association "Whales Whisperers" is made up of musicians whose goal is to compose harmonious accompaniment for the sounds produced by whales, killer whales, and dolphins. The first performances will feature this mythical flute and a vocalist (soprano).

The first attempts will take place in a studio, then on stage with onscreen photo and video projections. Following this experimentation period and final touches, improvisations will be conducted directly with the cetaceans.

The aim of this artistic production is to preserve these large sea-dwelling mammals. Given the stakes and risks of confusion, it is important to specify the limits of such a project:

This project is not an attempt to earn money from the preservation cause: this is a non-profit project. Should a profit be made from concerts or productions, it will be donated to non-profit organizations for the defense and protection of the undersea environment, or reinvested to improve communication about our cause.

Its aim is not to use the whale sounds as accompaniment for music having nothing in common with their nature. Their sounds are to remain unaltered and accompanied by melodies sung by a human voice or played by an instrument. This process will be monitored and approved by a team of scientists and professionals in order to ensure that the mammals' uniqueness and specificity is respected.

This project does not intend to establish a means of communication with whales through a pseudo-scientific interpretation of sound. The goal is to foster emotional interaction between the musicians' improvisations and the whales themselves...
