The Domžale Chamber Choir was established in 1987 and since 2007 it has been led by Fernando Mejias. The choir has performed together with the RTV Slovenia Symphony Orchestra, the orchestra of the Slovene National Theatre Maribor, and other choirs (including the RTV Chamber Choir, the Academic Choir Tone Tomšič, the Consortium Musicum Ljubljana, Carmina Slovenica, and the Ljubljana Madrigalists Chamber Choir), both in Slovenia and abroad.
