Their debut album Desert Island was released in 1980 and achieved significant success in Japan and Korea. Notable albums include Apurimac (1984), and Concierto De Aranjuez (1986). Their music was frequently used as background music, including Epcot's IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth and the radio program Coast to Coast AM. Cusco received three Grammy nominations throughout their career. Schultze passed away in 2011.
