The Lani Singers of West Papua | LIVE session & interview on BBC Radio
The Lani Singers of West Papua settle down for an indepth interview and live performance session on DJ Ritu's 'A World In London' show on BBC Radio London, February 2008.The Lani Singers hail from the remote central highland region of West Papua. Deeply emotive and compelling, their songs are rooted in the sacred rituals of the Lani tribes people – a tribe whose way of living has remained largely unchanged since the Stone Age.But their music also conveys a powerful modern day message - the struggle that their fellow people endure under a brutal and illegal Indonesian occupation. Since 1963, over 400,000 native West Papuans have been murdered by Indonesian military and countless others have ‘disappeared’ in one of the world’s worst ongoing yet largely unreported cases of ethnic cleansing.Listen to more of their music at www.thelanisingers.comJoin Podchaser to...
