A bit heavy sounding, but, all in all, a decent composition.

AR's stage presence was also a plus.

Yes, she is magnificent. A little history on Once Upon a Time in the West: It starred Henry Fonda, Charles Bronson, Jason Robards, and Claudia Cardinelli. Henry Fonda said, at the time, that it was a cheap little giveaway movie that he wished he hadn't made. Much later, he said that is was the best movie he ever made.

Sergio Leone, who directed the movie and the Clint Eastwood Dollars Triology, said that the movie had not one original plot nor one original line in it. Still, it is regarded as his best film and it remains a classic.

Ennio Marricone, who composed the soundtrack and performed it in the movie, lent an austere, troubled score that is integral to Once Upon a Time in the West; Leone edited and cut the film to this majestic music, rather than the traditional other way around. This theme to the movie doesn't include the electric guitar or the harmonica (you have to go deeper into the film for that), but its orchestra does suggest something majestic and terrifying at the same time. Yet, some songs are deeply reflective and painfully sad, such as A Dimly Lit room (I have requested that this tune be played at my funeral because it has always made me reflectful and thought-provoking):
