When playing this particular music, I love the thought of seeing a visual such as this full of color and movement. It really does it justice. Griffes is a favorite composer of mine, and his music is definitely in my piano repertoire along with Debussy, MacDowell, and Scriabine. There may be a few out there who understand just what I mean...the music can be felt in the veins...viscerally
You are right, this is NOT "Nightfall" but rather "Night Winds" which Griffes composed as part of "Three Tone Poems." I use this music as a coda to my choreographic work "Roman Sketches." This dance suite is in five sections, the first four of which are set to Griffes' piano suite "Roman Sketches" ("The White Peacock," "Nightfall," "Fountains of Acqua Paolo," and "Clouds"). For simplicity's sake, I refer to the entire five section dance as "Roman Sketches." A few clips are on view here.
Beautiful performance. Your graceful movments combined with the changing color lights and piano create a gorgeous visual scene. Lovely!
