We are a group of Gunadarma students who love to sing and regularly gather to rehearse and polish our performances. Our Gunadarma Choir "Swara Darmagita" was officially established on October 28, 1989. Our Choir has grown and developed ever since that time. Now, 24 years later, we are a 40 strong mixed choir, with a significant background of achievement and motivation.
