Yes, which goes back to your point below about the quality of the recording being key.
Seems to me there is probably no perfect way of recording a sound from a single instrument like the violin. Can one close mic something AND also capture the effect of the room with other mics? I don't know enough about the recording process to understand what the limitations must be.
