...Can MIDI do that using a high-quality enough synth? Or is it always gonna be detectable as MIDI?...




Absolutely.

Hollywood movie soundtracks and underscores use MIDI for a lot of things, including the famous Dreamworks' private MIDI samples of the London Symphony.

Nobody complains about THAT sound.

And many of the recordings you hear today use MIDI keyboards, at least.
