His works have been performed internationally by acclaimed ensembles and soloists, including the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Quatuor Bozzini, Apartment House, and Philip Thomas, at festivals such as Tectonics Glasgow, Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, and Ostrava Days.As a performer, Arnold contributes to Toronto's vibrant scenes in free improvisation, experimental jazz, roots, and rock, playing instruments like electric guitar, banjo, melodica, and live electronics, notably as a long-time member of the Ryan Driver Quartet/Quintet/Sextet. His compositional style draws influences from Morton Feldman and the Wandelweiser Collective, emphasizing quietude, spatial awareness, and idiomatic instrumental techniques.
