Conducted by Andrej Makor, the Obala Koper Mixed Choir is a high-quality mixed choir which performs choral music from all periods, especially contemporary choral compositions. The choir was established in 1977 and has been led by Mirko Slosar, Walter Lo Nigra, Ambrož Čopi, Maja Cilenšek and Sebastjan Vrhovnik.

Obala Koper Mixed Choir has initiated the International Choir Festival Koper that takes place annually in Koper. A programme of quality concerts is accompanied by several choir seminars with renowned Slovene and international conductors and lecturers. Obala often performs at official municipality and state events, cooperates with other choirs and orchestras and also stimulates the production of music by commissioning new compositions. For its 40th anniversary, the choir published a double CD with the title Sledi... (Traces...), which summarizes its activity under the leadership of the conductor Sebastjan Vrhovnik.
