DESCRIPTION:Whale song is an astonishing world of sound whose existence no 
 one suspected before the 1960s. Its discovery has forced us to confront the
  possibility of an alien intelligence not in outer space but right here on 
 earth. 
\n
\nThis event will explore how researchers from around the globe 
 have attempted to decipher underwater music as they confront an unknown as 
 vast as the ocean. It'll also look David Rothenberg's personal quest to mak
 e interspecies music\, by playing his clarinet with whales in their native 
 habitats from Russia to Canada to Hawaii.
