Text by Jessica Hiemstra
 
"'For whales' is a lament and a love song. I wrote it thinking about how I
do not have the language to offer whales an apology for what humans have
done to our oceans. Our debris makes it hard for them to hear one another.
In this song, I try to apologize to whales, knowing this song won't reach them." -Jessica Hiemstra

"This beautiful poetic song has so much movement and fluidity in its flow. It is
this feature that I have used as the ever-present 'theme' throughout this piece - the rocking rhythm and the swelling motion of the ocean's water. All of this within the suspended depths of water which the whales call home, and ending with a question
of hope." -Edward Enman
