Lotta good brass there, good sax player, but not a traditional Japanese tune of bamboo.

There is an interesting discussion on the puzzlement of the physics of musical scales. They are far from objective. They are culturally specific, the notes start at different places and have different intervals - not only between cultures but within them.
No notes are pure but are collections of overtones and undertones which vary from instrument to instrument, and from genre to genre.
Intrinsic human musicality cannot be found within the brain. And the universality of music can only be defined by the most basic abilities to hear, to hear changes in pitch and to respond to the temporality of rhythm. In fact we seek rhythm even when it is not really there.

All of them, but it's based in his music, you can even choose him as a character and play with him. That doesn't mean that the music in the game are copies.
