Naoyuki Onda’s haunting, original keyboards entwine with a beautiful collage of shakuhachi, erhu, koto and other instruments from Asia, creating a rich and vivid landscape of sounds in "Wings in the Dawn," his second release on the Pacific Moon label. In addition to releasing a previous album ("Dream") on the Pacific Moon label, he has worked on several other Pacific Moon projects as well: as a keyboard player on the albums "River" and "Rainbow" (by renowned erhu player Jia Peng-Fang, with whom Onda often performs in concert), and as one of four composers using the pentatonic musical scale, on Pacific Moon piano compilation albums, "Ancient City" and "Snow."
