Ambient music videos, piano sessions and cinematic performances

The grains Videos page brings together ambient music videos, piano sessions and cinematic live performances from across the contemporary classical landscape. 

This is where sound and visuals meet: intimate solo recordings, widescreen electronic sets, modern classical works filmed with clarity and restraint. Instead of endless feeds, you get a curated selection that reflects the mood and aesthetic of the grains universe.

You can also move from a video directly into the grains Shop, where you will find vinyl, CDs and exclusive editions that match the pieces featured here. You can also explore our Artist overview to dive deeper into complete catalogues and related releases.

A curated selection of ambient and piano music videos

This page highlights a carefully assembled collection of ambient music videos and piano music videos that show how this music unfolds when captured visually. Each piece is selected to represent the atmosphere that defines grains: subtlety, spaciousness, emotional depth.

Many of the piano sessions you encounter here focus on close-up detail. You hear felt, wood and pedal texture while the camera observes the smallest movements of the instrument. These recordings are ideal for listeners who want to understand how contemporary piano works are built, not only how they sound.

Ambient recordings take a different route. Slow camera work, minimal lighting and thoughtful framing gently mirror the sustained harmonies and drifting textures. These videos are well-suited for focus, evening listening or quiet in-between moments, offering a calm, immersive experience beyond pure audio.

Whenever a featured track appears in our shop, the video becomes an entry point to discover the corresponding edition. From there, you can explore vinyl variants, CDs or special packaging available in the grains Store.

Live session videos across modern classical, ambient and electronic styles

The grains Videos page is also home to a wide range of live session videos: contemporary classical ensembles, electronic hybrid sets, intimate solo moments and more expansive performances.

Live sessions present the music in its most direct, unfiltered form: introduce strings, percussion or small ensembles, creating an acoustic depth that benefits greatly from visual context. You can see the interaction between players, sense the dynamics and feel the room shaping the sound.

Electronic and hybrid sessions widen the spectrum. Synths, controllers and acoustic instruments meet in a way that reflects how ambient, electronica and film music increasingly blur together. These sessions are especially useful for listeners who want to connect the sound they know from recordings or playlists with the physical act of performance.

Throughout the page, you will find connections to artist pages, related collections and album stories, so you are always one step away from discovering more.

For focus, inspiration and late-night listening

The Videos page is designed to serve different listening situations. You can watch a full concert film, let ambient live sessions play in the background during deep work, or explore piano performances that support reading and concentration.

Piano music videos bring clarity and melodic focus, making them a natural fit for work sessions or quiet morning hours. Ambient music videos unfold more slowly and are ideal for late-night listening, rest or reflection. Hybrid and electronic performances bring rhythmic pulse and exploratory textures that work well for inspiration or creative breaks.

Because everything is curated, you can press play and trust that the atmosphere will remain consistent. Each artist brings their own voice, but the underlying sensibility is shared: cinematic, thoughtful and understated.

Explore more from the grains catalog

The Videos page is an entry point into the larger grains world. Just as each video connects to an artist, every artist connects to a catalogue, a set of editions and a story worth exploring.

• the Artist overview, where you will find complete discographies and all available formats

• curated collections around themes like ambient, piano or soundtrack aesthetics
