Perhaps the most recognisable instruments used in Andean music are the panpipes, called "siku" or "zampoñas". These come in a variety of sizes and arrangements and are usually made out of the common names for the different sizes like "malta" (very small), "ika" (small), "siku" (medium), "sanka" (medium-large), "semitoyo" (large), and "toyo" (very large). |

Other flutes traditionally used in Andean music are the quenilla, quena and quenacho. These flutes are of identical constructions but in different sizes, consisting
of a hollow tube with a notch at the mouthpiece, six fingerholes on the top and a thumbhole at the bottom.
The construction is generally of bamboo, wood, rosewood, or ebony with or without bone mouthpiece. |
