A bit arguable if this counts as he played on the subtle and sublime original. Also I like most of his output.

That is not accurate.
When I first heard that (on a different clip), I thought it was a diabolical attempt at 2001 by a school orchestra.
In fact, it was an experiment performed by the Portsmouth Sinfonia, and the deal was that they all swapped instruments, and no one was allowed to play an instrument that they had played before – which kind of shows!
