"I'm constantly thinking about bodies moving through space when I'm writing for ballet - that is what has informed this music, first and foremost," says Sufjan Stevens on Reflections, his latest collaboration with choreographer Justin Peck.

Originally commissioned and performed by Houston Ballet in 2019, Reflections was written for two pianos and eleven dancers. A studio recording of the seven movements is now available; engineered, mixed and mastered by Ryan Streber with performances by pianists Timo Andres and Conor Hanick.

Released via Asthmatic Kitty Records, Reflections is, in Stevens words, about "energy, light and duality." This piece follows on from several scores Stevens has created with Peck, including Year of the Rabbit (2012), Everywhere We Go (2014), In the Countenance of Kings (2016), The Decalogue (2017) and Principia (2019).
