HIGHLANDS SING SINGS OF PAPUA NEW GUINEA

A sing sing is a gathering of multiple tribes or villages demonstrating their own individual cultures, musical traditions and dances at one event. Multiple sing sings occur during the year in Papua New Guinea. The following images were taken in 2015 at both the Enga and Mt Hagen singsings. Enjoy !
