Appearing as City Opera’s heedless Turiddu, tenor Corey Arnold sang with an abundance of expansiveness in a role laden with virtuosic opportunity, launching the proceedings with a fine, soaring rendition of the deservedly celebrated siciliana, O Lola c’hai di latti la cammisa si bianca e russa comu la cirasa (“O Lola! Pure and ripe as the cherry in your nightdress white as milk”). Sung, not from the wings as is customary, but instead spotlit at centre stage, Arnold thrilled, charismatic and commanding from lights up to fade out. Ian Ritchie - Operagoto.com Full Text

Corey Arnold sang a version of “nessun dorma” that impressed me very much, even if I had the temerity to laugh at the end: when Corey collapsed in a heap due to some magical shenanigans.

In the film Men in Black, do you recall the way Vince D’onofrio becomes the creepy bug, walking around as though he’s an alien with a dead human body loosely hanging on his bug body, as his dressing gown? Corey pulled off something like that, when –after dropping dead—a magician has a spirit walk into his body, bringing him back to a staggering semi-life. It was creepy and brilliant.
