Yeah

but

All of the important characters just happen to be introduced on the first CD

Rinoa, Seifer, Irvine, Zell, Laguna, Ward, Kiros, Cid, Edea, Selphie, Quistis etc

There's nobody else really important to introduce, minus Ellone like you say.

Even Ulti is introduced on the 1st CD, it's just through Evil! Edea.
