Koichi Sugiyama
Many original composers have publicly exhibited their music through symphonic concert performances. Once again, Koichi Sugiyama was the first to execute this practice in 1987 with his "Family Classic Concert" and has continued these concert performances almost annually. In 1991, he also formed a series called Orchestral Game Music Concerts, notable for featuring other talented game composers such as Yoko Kanno ("Nobunaga's Ambition", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Uncharted Waters"), Nobuo Uematsu ("Final Fantasy"), Keiichi Suzuki ("Mother/Earthbound"), and Kentaro Haneda ("Wizardry").
