Take a Shinkansen (Nozomi Super Express) from Shin-Osaka station to Nagoya station. Then transfer to Wide View Shinano. It takes about 2 hours. Costs 6,000.

Direct Train from Osaka 2009/2/17 22:04
I think the easiest is the direct limited express Wideview Shinano from Osaka to Matsumoto with no changes of train. It takes about four hours. However, there is only one departure per day, at 8:58 a.m. (from Osaka station, not Shin Osaka). It costs 8920 yen.

If you want to take a train at some other time, the easiest option is probably taking the shinkansen from Shin Osaka to Nagoya and changing to the Wideview Shinano in Nagoya. As far as I can tell, this costs a little over 10,000 yen and takes about 3 hours.
