It seems that you need a separate instance of the SFZ player running for each articulation of each instrument. Sonatina Symphonic Orchestra - Free which is attractive, but I downloaded it and it seems to be just a bunch of free SFZ files (which sound fine) but setting it up with the SFZ player is extremely complicated.

Instead, it offers a quick interface with great playability that's easy to transport, and in that respect it remains the best package of its kind.
