 Have you tried Cubic Player???
http://www.cubic.org/player/
Get the player itself (ocp251.zip) _and_ all 8 "GUS Patch" files.
(you'll need ARJ.EXE to decompress the patches)

If you've never heard a MIDI the way it was _meant_ to sound...
         You won't believe your ears !!! <g>

The only time I heard them played this well was with a Linux MIDI player.
(the Linux player also requires the Gus patches to do it on an SB card)
