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.
