Sorry Vegangelica I've just saw that you've posted it! But I had to!
Prokofiev's "Dance of the Knights" is just that good, it deserves multiple postings! I can understand the power of the piece compelling you to post your own paean to this great song.

Also, I prefer the performance you selected because it is just slightly slower and more stately than the one I chose (because it showed the orchestra in action).

Maybe now a third Prokofiev fan will come in and post yet another video of "Dance of the Knights." We will have to wait in suspense to see what happens...
