I've read that productions that use period-correct muzzleloaders
have to use 16 cannons, one for each shot, since there's not way
to reload safely in the time available with fewer.

Yes.  The higher muzzle velocity of modern artillery means it's pitched
more than an octave sharp of typical 18th century cannon, though it is
very common to use them for the piece.

Modern mortars sound more like 18th century artillery to me, more of
a "thunk" sound.  Unfortunately not usable for the orchestra, though,
since the rounds have to fall somewhere.
