The EKOOS vocal ensemble in Sooke, on Vancouver Island, consists of a group of singers who enjoy performing a wide variety of choral music, mostly a cappella.

Our director is Peter Dent who is well known both as a choral director and a jazz musician. For much of his early career Peter worked as an adult educator and arts administrator, maintaining music as a recreational activity. His developing amateur career as a baritone led him to consider music more and to study conducting with James Fankhauser and Phil Mattson. He has conducted musical ensembles on many tours of the Czech Republic and acted as a musical juror for two choral festivals there. In addition to Ekoos, he is also the Musical Director of the Newcombe Singers and Coro Galiano.
