Better analogy: the organist is so awful that instead of the mellifluous Mozart score arranged for organ he is getting a raucous, incoherent twelve-tone mess due to all the wrong notes.
Or Trump needs a decent MIDI setup. I occasionally take a MIDI file of a classic piece like Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor and route the resultant notes to a bunch of synthesized trombones. Why be boring and always use an organ voice?
I would simulate a wind ensemble.
