Tree Of Codes, the Jamie xx-scored ballet based on Jonathan Safran Foer’s writing, opened in Manchester earlier this month. Some clips from the performance hit the internet today.

His music will be on display—along with that piece of art that inspired it—in a special soundproof room starting July 8. Read what the producer has to say about the emotional power of ballet here.
