Those have words/lyrics. I'm thinking more like silent films except where the music isn't incidental. Symphonies can sometimes have singing, but the singing wouldn't be done by a character on-screen.
There was a scene in Peter Weir's "Fearless" starring Jeff Bridges where a key sequence was silent except for a recording of a Gorecki symphony... beyond that I'm kind of drawing a blank.
EDIT: Ballet would be a better example. Except without so much dancing. :-)

Here's one I love (by a locally-based musician so I'm probably biased): https://vimeo.com/123219861 https://vimeo.com/123219861
