Sufjan Stevens has spent the past two decades making everything from heart-wrenching folk ballads (Seven Swans), conceptual electronica (Enjoy Your Rabbit) and baroque pop (Illinois) to orchestral art-rock (The Age of Adz), countless Christmas songs and R&B jams (“TOOGOODTOBETRUE,” with Gallant and Rebecca Sugar). In case that decidedly inexhaustive list didn’t already make it clear that the man can make magic out of literally any genre, he’s set to release a classical album on Oct. 18: the solo piano score he penned for the 2017 ballet The Decalogue, by Justin Peck, the New York City Ballet’s resident choreographer.
