Does musical creation have relationship with mathematics? What links exist between these two disciplines? Mathematical structures? Allow us to appreciate details beyond what we hear? Has there been mathematicians who have also had a reputation as musicians? How music sounds made by a mathematician? These and other questions will arise in a panel discussion in which several mathematicians, who spend part of his time to music, reflect this experience.
