Onoue states:
“Considering the meanings of starting from “Historic City Nara”, and that Nara is “the final destination of the Silkroad” have helped for the composition of this piece. Nara being a place where different cultures came across from the sea with many people, it absorbed and merged, developing its unique culture. In this piece is a message of appreciation, the desire to spread the wonderfulness of this country and for an everlasting future, from the “Far East”, Japan. ”
