Hmm somehow missed this one. It sounds promising, another console RPG, the concept really appeals to me as a fan of mysticism and anime.

Namco is of course known for its work on the Xenosaga and Tales series.

I like the concept of using real people in a anime/fantasy type setting too, using Chopin for something like this is great. Some of the best anime I have seen alluded to real life historical figures, i.e. Isaac Newton playing a prominent role in Escaflowne (no spoiler).

Either way, a console RPG from Namco/Bandai gets the old blood boiling, it could mean the Tales series lands on 360, which would be like my personal Christmas, along with the fate of Dragon Quest IX. Sony can have FFXIII, I'll take Dragon Quest and Tales anyday. RPG nerds unite!
