His discography is small but compelling, consisting of a few orchestral issues, full length operas and\u00a0 recital accompaniment albums. Rimsky-Korsakov&#8217;s masterpiece Scheherazade, is truly outstanding, brilliantly interpreted and played . In Quadri&#8217;s hands, the work comes alive and one can sense that the VSOO musicians are playing on the edge of their seats. This transcription\u00a0recording is coupled with a magnificent &#8220;Pines of Rome&#8221;. Both pieces were well-recorded in Westminster&#8221;s &#8220;Natural Balance&#8221; mono in 1953, and restored very nicely from excellent source LPs.
