[Kaworu is sitting at a terminal, again in the common room of his building, and he seems as content as ever. He's also... somewhat poorly dressed, bearing a lovely array of colors which just don't go together. Dark greens, mild oranges, a random smatter of beige... He has what looks like a purple handkerchief tied around his upper arm, too. Kaworu, please.

He says, easily,]
Good afternoon. For anyone listening, I wanted to pose a question. I've been enjoying the media center here; it is a good source of wonder. In particular, I've been very pleased with the music that I've found. Though, something's stood out to me: there is no music that I am familiar with from where I came from. Given the great prominence of Bach and Beethoven and Handel, even after hundreds of years, it's very certain that this place is wholly separate. More importantly, [in his opinion,] the only way I can reconnect with that music now is to reminisce on it myself. Or to play some of it myself. Further into town, there's a music shop which houses instruments, and they've indulged me a few times. Still, I've found immeasurable joy in experiencing the new music this place has to offer.

What I'm wondering, then, is if any of you - from different places, since there seem to be so many - have any songs you'd like to share. I'd be pleased to learn them. If you'd care to sing, I think it would be good. It would bring great happiness to all of us, isn't that so?

[And he seems so serene, yet - at the same time, earnest - that he must really believe that such an activity will bestow enlightenment upon these poor kidnapped masses.

Ah, a thought.]
That's right. Kaworu may see this as well. If so, Kaworu, why don't we go down and play something together sometime soon? We should talk.

The live performances and some of the instrumental solos are lost, to name but a few. The overall tone, while similar, is markedly different too. It is understandable given we are on another world, though irritating none the less.

Ah but is discovery not an experiment in taste? Much like meeting one's self is, I suppose.
