Favourite Castlevania music piece

I am new to this forum but have longtime been a Castlevania fan.
I was just interested to know what piece of music from any Castlevania game is your favourite.
Mine is the Castle Wall theme from C64.
I love the tribal drums and build up into a dark but beautiful piece of music.
Absolutely classic.

Wood Carving Partita from SotN will always be my favorite.
But I love all the rest of the classic/metroidvania tunes equally.

I love so many that my opinion on this could change almost daily.

That said.. These are some of the best tracks the franchise has to offer. I could never pick a favorite. But if i had no choice, it would be from this list.

bloody tears (Dracula X Chronicles)

dance of the holy man (Super Castlevania 4)

Praying hands (Belmont's revenge)

Ripe seeds (Belmont's revenge)

The tragic prince (Symphony of the night)

Vampire killer (Castlevania)

Monster dance (Simons Quest)

Battle of the holy (Castlevania adventure)

This magic whip could be an example of advanced alien technology.

Dusk's Holy Mark/Empty Tome, from Order of Ecclesia. It wasn't instantly my favorite, but it really grew on me.

Favorite Recurring piece: Bloody Tears. :)
Favorite individual piece: Opus 13.

I also like the sweet rave party remix of Vampire Killer in SOTN. There's only one way Alucard can settle the differences between him and his father, and that, my friends, is with a DDR match.  8)

Everything happens for a reason. We can assume for the worse, but we can also hope and pray for the better. :)

I like beginning, bloody tears, wicked child, simons theme, vampire killer, pretty much the whole 1st NES game.

rondo, chronicles, bloodlines, simons quest, dracs curse, cv. adventure, SCV4, 

...all have delightful OSTs, imo.

I have too many favourites to count, both from the original timeline and from LoS.  Bloody Tears however holds a soft spot in my heart, especially the gothic metal version often wrongly attributed to Cradle of Filth.  It was the first piece of Castlevania related music which I ever heard, and I was hooked.

Wandering Ghosts? Sick jam.

As of right now its Theme of Simon but Aquarius could sneak up on it.
