How about Peter Schickele in his PDQ Bach disguise? I remember the windbreaker (a series of mailing tubes arranged like pan pipes), the balloons attached to pitch pipes, the Hardart (in the Concerto for Horn and Hardart), the bicycle siren, the bagpipes, the double reeds (no oboes, English horns, or bassoons -- just the reeds). There must be many others his body of work.
