Einstein said, “I often think about music. I daydream about music.
I see my life in the form of music.” To honor Einstein’s scientific
achievements and his love of violin music, the outstanding British
violinist Jack Liebeck will appear in concert with pianist Charles Owen.
Prior to the concert, Liebeck will join Oxford University Professor
Brian Foster in a lecture entitled From Einstein to Superstrings. The
lecture will highlight Einstein’s appreciation of classical music as
well as his scientific legacy.
