We present preliminary results of VLT/FORS spectroscopy of globular clusters
in nearby early-type galaxies. Our project aims at studying the chemistry and
determine the ages of globular cluster (sub-)populations. First results
indicate that the different galaxies host from little to significant
intermediate-age populations, and that the latter have alpha-element over iron
ratios closer to solar than the old population that show an alpha-element
enhancement similar to the diffuse stellar light.Comment: 4 pages (incl 2 figures) to appear in the proceedings of
