How does the mind respond to familiar music?

This is one of the things I've wondered for decades. When we listen to familiar music our brains "light up" differently from when we listen to unfamiliar music. But what about familiar music played on a very different instrument? Listen to this very unusual version of Bach's familiar Prelude and Fugues in D minor and tell me how it strikes YOU! I'd really love to know!
