The kantus dance in the Oruro carnival

Music and Dance Kantus

Kantus is one of the most important dances of the Kantus Sartaņanis, being performed in most of the cantons such as Niņo Corin, Curva, Charazaņi, Chajaya, Amarete, Mataru, Iscanuwaya, Kata and others.

Music and Dance

The music and the dance of the K'antu for the region that performs and by the type of the melody that characterizes it, it can be deduced that it has a ceremonial ostrich fledgling that is to say, that it is quite linked to the rites and ceremonies of different kinds, and reasons why they performed the Kallawayas, and therefore the customs and cultural manifestations of these towns. The instruments that are played are The Sicus group, Putu Wankaras, Chimisco and the Pututu.

By Couples

The dance of Kántu basically by couples, for the conception of the complementary duality of gender existing in our communities, not preventing that single person to participate in the dance. All movements and steps that characterize this dance are similar to the movements taken by Katari (Viper).
