Wonderful Island from MOAI Project by Enrique Plazaola
„Wonderful Island“ is telling the tale of the beauty of the island. In the morning of an imaginary day, I am sitting on top of the Orongo and my gaze wanders aimlessly. I would love to be able to fly. My mind wanders to the ancestors and gets lost in the many images of the Moais, the bird men, the caves, and then I look up into the horizon and the vastness of the sea. There is no doubt that I have been enchanted.

Lyrics
Verse I
Very early in the morning
at my favorite place on Orongo,
I am watching the horizon
where the waves are kissing the sun.
And if I had a boat
I would sail around
and if I had wings I would fly around,
yes so close to the sky,
yes I feel so free
the beauty of the island has put a spell on me.
Chorus
Now in this moment so silent I love this wonderful island.
Verse II
My thoughts fly away to those Ancients
who sailed thousands of miles on the sea.
They came from far away landing at Anakena Bay
to discover the beauty of this paradise.
Chorus
Now in this moment of silence I love this wonderful island.

I was born on the 6th of December 1966 in Göttingen, Germany. My father was a German, my mother is Chilean. With the age of 7, I began to take me first instrumental lessons – at first the accordeon, later the piano. Later I studied at the university of Dortmund, took lessons for the jazz piano with Julius Styczinski and in arrangement with Betin Günes.
