Resumen
A partir de la década de 1970, ciudades latinoamericanas como Lima, La Paz, Buenos Aires, Santiago y Bogotá han atestiguado el surgimiento y desarrollo de escenas musicales basadas la interpretación colectiva de las flautas de Pan conocidas con el nombre aimara de sikus —instrumentos originalmente interpretados por agricultores indígenas en los Andes centrales. Aunque la mayoría de quienes participan en estas escenas no crecieron en contextos en que la interpretación de sikus formara parte de un traspaso generacional,hoy asumen esta práctica como propia y le confieren usos y significados funcionales a sus propios entornos y agendas. Con base en numerosas jornadas de trabajo de campo multisituado al interior de las escenas sikuri de Buenos Aires, Santiago y Bogotá, en este artículo argumento que su creciente interconexión ha dado forma a un movimiento transnacional. Exploro las nociones de autenticidad y respeto en tanto mecanismos a través de los cuales los sikuris negocian su legitimidad para interpretar músicas de origenindígena, y concluyo que sus actividades inspiran estilos de vida alternativos con el potencial de generar transformaciones profundas en la identidad, cultura y sociedad latinoamericanas.
Since the 1970s, Latin American cities such as Lima, La Paz, Buenos Aires, Santiago, and Bogotá have witnessed the emergence and development of music scenes focused on the collective interpretation of the Andean Pan flutes known by the aimara name sikus. Despite the fact that most of the participants of these scenes did not grow in family, community or regional contexts in which sikuri musical practices were generationally transferred, today they assume these as their own while adapting their uses and meanings to their own social environments and agendas. Based on several multi-sited fieldwork sessions in the metropolitan Buenos Aires, Santiago, and Bogota scenes, I argue that their growing interconnectedness has given shape to a transnational movement. I also explore the notions of authenticity and respect as mechanisms through which the sikuris negotiate their legitimacy as performers of indigenous Andean music, and conclude that their activities have the potential to transform Latin American identity, culture, and society.
