According to Cadence Magazine, "Corbus displays sensitivity and fluidity in his conception." Mr. Corbus'Ìýsecond CD, Sound Down, was also favorably reviewed: "Corbus’ style is slightly more measured and straightforward than Broom’s, but he navigates his lines with clarity and purpose and has his own springy, distinctive style of improvising."ÌýHis latest CD,Ìý3ocity, with Pat Bianchi on organ and Todd Reid on drums, was released in October 2005 on Capri Records.
