If evolution explains an organism's instincts, how does the theory explain why a human organism might learn and play Leontovych's "Carol of the Bells" rather than Pachelbel's "Canon in D"?

No. Because the choice between these two is not an instinct. The rationale for choosing one or the other will not originate in the limbic region of the brain. Instincts are there to provide basic ways to help avoid bad things happening. You hear a loud noise, you look in that direction, to see the cause. You feel hungry, so you eat something. The same cannot be applied to choice of classical music. Though in my opinion it can be applied to classical music vs. Club Anthems vol 14.
