Noam Chomsky will be honored at an MIT concert, to be held on January 22, 2010, at Kresge Auditorium. The Los Angeles-based composer Edward Manukyan will be present with the famous linguist and philosopher, to hear performances of chamber music - some of which were dedicated to Prof. Chomsky - and songs on Chomsky's words.
The event is part of a series of concerts in which the composer honors some of the world's leading intellectuals and scientists with musical dedications. Similar concerts will follow in New York and Texas, honoring the Nobel-laureate biologist James Watson and physicist Steven Weinberg later next year.
The concert will also feature speeches about Chomsky and his contribution to science and world ideas, by noted scientists from MIT and Harvard.
