Commissioned by Houston Ballet
choreographed under the title 'Reflections' — the music's working title was 'Many Happy Returns'
Programme Note
Reflections was originally commissioned by Houston Ballet to accompany choreography by Justin Peck, and premiered March 21, 2019.
It is about “energy, light and duality,” Stevens says. “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.”
