Our City’s Carillons – June 01 2026

You hear them a few times every hour, but how much do you know

about the wonderful carillons in Groningen? To learn more join us June 01

for a discussion about the Martini carillon, the University of Groningen

carillon, the two musicians who currently play them (who take requests!),

and the different array of compositions we hear on them (from popular

music to traditional tunes!). During the session, we’ll all go out in the streets

together to hear a piece composed by American composer Constance Cooper.

Constance will be present, so we’ll also hear from the composer about her

work. Join us! The event is free, open to the public and will take place

Monday June 01, 10:30-12:00 in Oude Boteringestraat 34 room 002.
