F.W. Murnau’s German expressionist horror film is revered as one of the scariest Dracula adaptations ever made. The new score by the Andrew Alden Ensemble compliments the horror of the film and the classic story of Dracula with the sensibilities of classical chamber music and the distinct edge of rock. The music, featuring piano, violin/viola, synthesizers, percussion, guitar, saxophone, and electric sound design, will be performed live during a screening of the film, giving audiences a new experience with this memorable classic.
