Kikizo recently had the opportunity to talk with Yuzo about his recent work, the technical aspects of game music composition, and the difficulties of being a small developer in a cutthroat market.

Yuzo Koshiro ha sido el compositor de verdaderas obras de arte musicales para videojuegos, sino que lo digan los soundtracks de juegos como The Revenge of Shinobi, Actraiser y Shenmue, por nombrar algunos.

 "The Next Level" Developer Spotlight - Ancient
The same year that he scored ActRaiser (1990), Tomo Koshiro founded Ancient and, naturally, Yuzo became the company’s composer, while his sister, Ayano, became art and character designer (she was also the graphic designer on ActRaiser).
Following that was Yuzo’s return to outside composition for Alcon and the inferior sequel to ActRaiser, where Ayano also reprised her role as art director, and also became the game’s scenario writer and scroll designer.
Yuzo himself experienced a sort of upswing in popularity after composing the soundtrack to the popular Culdcept, a board/card video game for the Saturn that has spawned several sequels on the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2.

 Falcom Special Box 2004 - SquareSound Forums
GoldfishX or Z should write Koshiro's Bio as they are the most experienced in the Falcom area.
Here's about the extent I know about Koshiro (and most its' taken from an interview...I have part of it in one of my EGM mags, but the rest is published elsewhere online): His first Falcom work was Xanadu Scenario 2, then Romancia, then his well-known Ys, Ys 2 and Sorcerian works.
Quick explanation: The reason Koshiro is probably credited for Ys 4 is because Ys 4 uses several songs from Ys 1 and 2 (namely Feena, Lilia, Tower of the Shadow of Death, Syonin, Fountain of Love, Theme of Adol, Rest in Piece and Last Moment of the Dark).

 Pairing 2-38: "Aitos ~ Temple ~ Descent ~ World Tree" vs. "Bridal Waltz" - SquareSound Forums
Yuzo Koshiro always impresses me, no matter what company he worked for, and "Aitos ~ Temple ~ Descent ~ World Tree" is a testament to his skill.
Sugiyama's competitor is somewhat a bit under-enjoyable compared to Koshiro's power, and it isn't as strong as an arrangement to move on in this comp.
To clarify the first subject, I'm not scolding Koshiro for finding inspiration in other composers, as I think that particular process is necessary for any artist to improve.
