What should the album title be translated as, if at all? It means Evangelion Symphonic Music, but if you want we can just put it in as romanji. That would be Evangelion Koukyougaku.

I think Evangelion Symphony is fine for this.

The text on the cover doesn't show up very well. You can kind of see it if you squint...
Maybe "Evangelion Symphonic" or "Symphonic Evangelion"? I mean, they don't use Symphony 交響曲 or Symphonic Poem 交響詩 or Symphonic Suite 交響組曲... |

Some places have it as Symphony of Evangelion.
I really don't know though. |

I suspect that 交響楽 is used for what we sometimes call "Symphony Orchestra" rather than for the symphonic work itself. For example, the Hiroshima Symphony Orchestra:
http://hirokyo.or.jp/ 広島交響楽団 though they add an extra character that usually means something like "Group", so it's still kind of unclear. |

The thing is that symphony refers to a specific form of music (albeit one that's gotten looser and looser over the years), and the title does not have the word used to refer to it. In the other case, 楽団 is a compound meaning orchestra.

Well, give it the best translation as close to the meaning as you can, and include the romanized title on the 3rd line.

If it helps, yahoo JP dictionary says 交響楽 is a Symphony or Symphonic poem performed by an orchestra, and also and old way to say Symphony.

While I was adding the English tracklist I noticed that the 13th track on Disc 2 was missing.
It's an unlisted 11 minute encore track, so I guess that explains why no one noticed it was missing. |

I found something interesting. http://www.yeseule.kr/evapamp.htm This pamphlet refers to this as "SYMPHONY OF EVANGELION." This is the only picture I've found of it, but i believe it's totally legit. Should the title be changed?
