Last week, Sufjan Stevens announced the release of a new five-volume album called Convocations. Stevens’ biological father died last year, two days after he released his album The Ascension, and Convocations represents Stevens’ attempt to deal with his loss through music. The five volumes of Convocations represent five stages of mourning, and Stevens is releasing all of them one at a time, a week apart. On Friday, Stevens shared Meditations, the first volume of Convocations. Today, he’s followed it with a track from Lamentations, the second volume.
