Heh. It's an approach, certainly, but I'd question its sanity. :p

Oh, so you want reasons?

Why bother with Composer at all as you include it in the Album name.

How do I know what work I'm listening to if I am playing anything other 
than the first track?

Roman numerals don't sort well (it could be done, but it's not trivial).
