The Bibilang Shark Calling Group featured in Radio 3's major series 'Music Planet' earlier this year, and also made a special trip from Papua New Guinea for last month's Human Planet Prom concert. Here they play songs which have never been heard outside Papua New Guinea, many of which were bought by their leader Langan Daniel from old village singers for the equivalent of £5.
