There are hardly any  musicians in Antigua who would be interested in classical chamber music, but I do have myself, and a former trained but rusty pianist from UK. 
My ambition is to present the kegelstatt trio which is manageable and quite easy listening. 
For the third member, the viola, I have stood ready to transcribe the part for any instumentalist who turned up. 
Last June a didgeridoo artist was here from Perth , Oz.,on a 41 foot yacht,  and stayed for a month but he found the part too challenging. 
Right now i have a bagpipes played from Glasgow but once again it is a stretch. 
 
Does anyone have experiences on extreme transposition and substitution?

 I've used accordion for the piano part and violin for the viola part!

 Thanks for the response. When I get this together I will post a record of the performance regardless of the outcome. The most likely candidate  for the viola will probably be a steel drum ( or 'pan') player. There are still plenty , and some are remarkable - read too.

Ed, think of this kind of thing as banging your head against the wall so that you can experience how good it feels when you stop!
