My only problem is that maybe it should be one track all together, instead of spliting it up into five
Though the entire thing is a work of genius - I especially loved '03 - Hope' and '02 - March of the Wise Man,' full of energy and heavilly uplifting (and especially when you watch the trailers, you help but get excited by it!)
This was the second thing I had heard with Hakase, and I must say I adore his work - I used to play the violin, and I tell you it needs talent to be played well, and Hakase plays it well - I love string instruments!
There is a thread here with more of Hakase's stuff, though when I get a bit more money I am going to invest into some of his albums

As for Toriyama, I would like to hear more of his work, as I loved the Genso Suikoden V Opening Theme.
4/5 for Symphonic Poem "Hope"
Jam it back in, in the dark.
