It's been said that studying music helps people learn math, and this afternoon you can see why. Mathematics in Music - A Concert-Conversation With Elaine Chew will have Chew, an engineer and pianist, talking about math's role in music as well as her geometric model for tonality. It is a concert, so she'll perform a number of works including a new one called "Sudoku Variations." 4:30 p.m. Free. MIT's Killian Hall Building 14W Room 111, 160 Memorial Drive, Cambridge. 617-253-4347. web.mit.edu/arts![]()
