Maybe I just haven't heard enough Hisaishi, but I found this more interesting than a lot of his work.
The harmonic language is intriguing yet accessible, and the instruments blend together wonderfully.
One quibble is the rigid implementation of "one chord per bar" doctrine. If the work weren't so harmonically engaging, this would probably result in tedium, which is to say that by changing the rhythms up a little, the piece could be even better.
All in all, really impressive work. I really think you should consider lengthening this and developing the existing ideas.
P.S. Please share a score!
