The maestro behind such state-themed chamber pop classics as 2003’s Michigan and 2005’s Illinois is currently slated to write musical accompaniment to an upcoming short directed by Natalie Portman. The film, called Eve, is a 22-minute affair starring Lauren Bacall and Ben Gazzara. Portman, an admitted fan of Sufjan’s work, said she contacted him directly for help. Apparently, she was very pleased with the outcome. According to Stevens’ label Ashmatic Kitty, the soundtrack will consist of several brief piano instrumentals. There is still no news as to Stevens’ next full-length.
