- The cocking of the shotgun

- The clinking of the reins

- Fire flames

- The cawing of the bird

- Glass shattering

- The door being kicked

- Violins

- Spinning of the revolver

The scene starts of with a piano playing  which slowly becomes louder and louder. As the clip moves on the different sounds blend and start clashing together which makes it extra dramatic.

The scene gets more intense from the middle to the end as the music speeds up making it sound more interesting and thrilling.

There are diegetic sounds used where you the objects are visible and heard. For example the sound of the horses and the carriage are included in the clip. The flames from the fire are heard and seen also the door opening and a crow flying past making noise. 

However there are non-diegetic sounds such as the piano through out the whole scene and the violin followed by the glass shattering everywhere. These sounds are only heard but not seen in the clip.
