Hey MIT!

This one-time event, blending science, music, and Noam Chomsky, promises to be a night that is not to be missed.  (Professor Chomsky has even turned  down an international speaking gig in order to attend along with his  friends and family.)

The concert will feature songs on Chomsky's words as well as pieces  dedicated to him and other famous scientists, composed by world-renowned  young Armenian-American composer Edward Manukyan.  The performing professional musicians are internationally recognized for  their talents. There will also be special speeches by Chomsky's colleagues,  including ProfessorsGennaro Chierchia  <http://www.fas.harvard.edu/%7Elingdept/f_chierchia.html>  from Harvard andDavid Pesetsky  <http://web.mit.edu/linguistics/people/faculty/pesetsky/index.html>  from MIT.

Tickets are $3 each for MIT community members and their guests and $10 for  non-MIT attendees.  Tickets will not be available at the door.  For more  information and tickets, please visit  http://gsc.mit.edu/chomsky.  This event is sponsored by the MIT Graduate Student Council.
