Once Upon a Time in The West opening sound analysis

What sounds?
Ambience of birds, man talking in another language, whistle or creaking?, footsteps and spurs clacking on ground, some object turning (a wheel?), liquid splashing, static noise, wood creaking, coins falling and rattling, grunts, wind over hills, water pouring, dog moaning, cracking, fly buzzing, huffing, dropping of heavy object, train brakes

Analysis:
Hinge creaking (lengthy, dull), birds (rural), urgency (why aren't they speaking?), loneliness or isolation (long shot), wind, dog crying (hungry), spurs clacking suggest it's a western

How does it represent characters?

What mood does this create?
