Final Fantasy Legend II
The music was co-composed by Nobuo Uematsu and Kenji Ito. While Uematsu had previously worked on the first SaGa, Ito had only just joined the company and this was his first title for Square. At the time, Uematsu was busy working on music for Final Fantasy IV, so Ito was brought in to create half the tracks. Composing for the game was a challenge for Ito as he had no experience with programming, needing to learn on the job. His first completed piece was the track "The Land of Peace"; as he had no experience with the short looping tracks common at the time, the theme was notably long. Kawazu asked for tracks based on particular scenes and moods, keeping the console's memory limitations in mind. Despite precautions, the number of planned parallel sounds was reduced, and several tracks needed to be cut. A compilation album featuring music from the three Game Boy SaGa titles, All Sounds of SaGa, was published in 1991 by NTT Publishing.
