The Cantos label, set up by Henri de Bodinat, released their first albums in 2005.
In May 2006, a large number of Classic Titles compilations with the sub-title World Legends Cantos Collection came out, offering an overview of mostly older songs from the Syllart catalogue. All albums are mid-priced and are a perfect introduction to African music.
