Kantu or k'antu is an ancient style of music and circle dance which is widespread since incaic or even preincaic epoch on the Peruvian and Bolivian highlands. Modern versions of this style still use the Quechua or Aymara language and the siku (ceremonial panpipe). Some musicologists argue that the name for this style comes from the Spanish word 'canto' meaning 'song.' Linguists might argue that the name comes from the Quechua word 'k'antu' which is a widely known flower in Bolivia. Also, k'antu may be a word of extinct Puquina language with unknown meaning.

  • El Kantus es un tipo de música de raíz precolombina, heredera de la cultura Mollo,​ nacida en Charazani​ (Bolivia) para banda de sicuris​ (ejecutantes de sicu, un tipo de zampoña ejecutado fundamentalmente en la zona andina de Sudamérica) cuyos orígenes son presuntamente ceremoniales.​ Esta danza, una de las más importantes de este tipo de agrupaciones instrumentales,​ se caracteriza por su ejecución en quintas y cuartas paralelas, producto de utilizar la misma digitación en instrumentos afinados a quintas y octavas de distancia, aproximadamente, la cual es una característica habitual en esta y otro tipo de expresiones musicales andinas. Su práctica actual está circunscrita a las comunidades quechuas de Charazani. (es)
