Koji Kondo (近藤 浩治, Kondō Kōji, born August 13, 1961) is a Japanese video game composer and sound director who has been employed at Nintendo since 1984. He is best known for his involvement in numerous titles in the Mario and The Legend of Zelda series of video games.
Kondo was born in Nagoya, Japan, on August 13, 1961. He began taking lessons in the electronic organ from the age of five. He improved his skills in the instrument in a cover band that played jazz and rock music. Kondo studied at the Art Planning Department of Osaka University of Arts, but was never classically trained or particularly dedicated to music. However, he gained some experience in composing and arranging pieces, using both the piano and a computer to assist him. During his senior year, Nintendo sent a recruitment message to his university stating that they were interested in hiring people dedicated to composition and sound programming. An LCD and arcade gamer, Kondo successfully applied for the job in 1984 without requiring any demo tapes.

Hey all, we had the amazing privilege of meeting and talking with Mr. Koji Kondo, legendary composer at Nintendo. Mr. Kondo composed some of the most well-known music in video game history including the Super Mario Bros. themes, The Legend of Zelda themes and so much more. He was kind enough to be on the show and talk to us about his work on the upcoming Mario Maker game and his career in general. We feel so lucky to get the chance to meet him, for both of us, this was truly a dream come true. We hope you enjoy the video. -Kit & Krysta Warning: The Super Mario Bros. theme will get stuck in your head for the next week or so. ;)

Interview with Video Game Composer Koji Kondo. More info at http://www.nintendo-online.de.
AMN's Ray Almeda sits down and chats with musician/ composer for Super Mario Bros. and Zelda - Koji Kondo.
A short animation I did in Maya. Just to clarify, this is not the TP model that's been floating around on the internet. I made this from scratch in Maya. I do plan on animating more interview questions but don't expect them any time soon. DISCLAIMER: Link and the Twilight Princess logo are trademarks of Nintendo all rights reserved. Music is by Koji Kondo borrowed from the "Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess" soundtrack.
After discovering the Zelda series as a teenager I decided to transcribe a whole load of tunes, particularly from Ocarina of Time, for the harp, because I loved them and lots of them are written for harp anyway! This solo arrangement of Fairy Fountain has been almost ten years in the making. Enjoy, and if you'd like to see me play more Zelda, subscribe!
