Welcome to the website of Groninger Student Music Association Bragi!
G.S.M.G. Bragi is the largest and oldest student music association in Groningen. The association was founded in 1882 and has approximately 100 members, who are divided into three sections: the symphony choir, the orchestra and the a cappella choir. Each section rehearses weekly and works on three programs each academic year, each season being concluded with several concerts. Our year is filled with rehearsal weekends, drinks, parties and many other fun (musical) activities!
There will be open rehearsals on KEI-week and in September 2024! Below, you can see the dates of each open rehearsal for each ensemble. There’s no need to register in advance, just come by!

What is Bragi?
The association was founded in 1882 (therefore we are over 135 years old!) and has around 100 members, divided over 3 ensembles: the symphony choir, orchestra and a-capella choir. With this, we are the oldest and biggest student music association in Groningen. Every ensemble has weekly rehearsals, usually seperately, though the orchestra and symphony choir join up towards the end of the season to rehearse their piece(s) together.
Tune in!
Play or sing along with our coming season!
