I would look for an ornamental grass as a less risky solution. I have used amur silver grass on very steep hillsides but be careful. It is not allowed in some areas because it is invasive. It spreads by roots, so it is only good if you can keep it contained by mowing (or using herbicides like glyphosate) around edges. Also, this grass gets tall (over 6 feet on my place) and might block your view, but has ornamental value in all seasons. This grass also burns hot like most grasses, so be careful it is not planted where catching fire would cause damage. It does form a monoculture once established and prevents everything else from growing. Other solutions: https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/il/home/?cid=nrcs143_023569
