Other performances include the Stadium Theater in Woonsocket, RI, the Providence Performing Arts Center with tenor Michael Amante, and in Valhalla, NY with World Champion Accordion players Mario Tacca and Peter Soave. In July 2002, Cory became the youngest ever National Accordion Champion and went on to Copenhagen, Denmark for the Coupe Mondiale World Competition.
