Wow, the more realistic version of the canon in D gave me goosebumps..
Yes. It sounds like it's almost another work entirely. That said, there are still some times where I prefer an "inauthentic" performance, like Glenn Gould's recordings of Bach, or, the performance of the St. Matthew Passion with Otto Klemperer, Peter Pears and Dietrich Fischer Dieskau I listened to last Good Friday.
Of course, my favourite performance of Dido and Aeneas is a HIPP (Emanuelle Haim cond,) but I still have a respect for performances like this:
