It's the scene where Dracula says that he never drinks...wine, where the camera stops to stare into his gaze, where the camera swings around Renfield after he's drunken the wine, then the beautiful entrance of Dracula's brides, Dracula waving them away, and then in for the kill. It's a very graceful scene in an otherwise clunky film, and if you see it in context without the score, it's really robbed of its power and punch. Splitting it off from it's overall context as I've done really highlights the scene, even without the score.
