A move from western Massachusetts to the UK in 2005 led Corsano to focus on his solo music, incorporating sax reeds, violin strings and bows, contact microphones and electronics, and everyday household items into his drum kit. In February 2006 he released his first solo recording, The Young Cricketer, and toured extensively throughout Europe, USA, and Japan. He spent 2007 and '08 as the drummer on Björk's Volta world tour, all the while weaving in shows and recordings on his days off with the likes of Evan Parker, Virginia Genta, and C. Spencer Yeh. Moving back to the U.S. in 2009, Corsano returned focus to his own projects, including solo work, duos with Michael Flower, Joe McPhee, Nate Wooley, and Mette Rasmussen and the trio Rangda with Richard Bishop and Ben Chasny.
