"The Majesty of Music & Mathematics"

Wed. 10/25 10a:  The Santa Fe Symphony continues its collaboration with the Santa Fe Institute for a multimedia concert on November 2 at the Lensic Center.  Using scientific demonstrations as well as the music of Bach, Brahms, Richard Strauss, John Williams and John Adams, the program looks at the close relationship between music and mathematics.   Spencer Beckwith is joined by mathematician Cris Moore of the Santa Fe Institute for a preview of the program.
