I've seen two ways that author's approach this task.

The first way: a lot of sensory detail and description in the opening page. This way often contains long sentences of detail that could become trite and boring if the writer doesn't provide proper sentence variety.

The second way: (recommended) Short sentences to start. Maybe even a fragment if you can get away with it. "Vroom vroom." "BAM!" "Rugged breathing, sound asleep." "Thunder." "Shooooooosh! A passing plane..." "Honk! Honk! 'Hey you, get the hell outta tha street!'"

Those short sentences capture your eye and invite you into a world of sound. The reader wants to hear more, to know what made that noise, to get your explanation as to why the character is standing outside or inside listening to this and how he/she feels about it.

Begin by describing the setting with sounds that create a vivid atmosphere, such as the chirping of birds or the rustling of leaves in a forest. Then introduce a character or event that is disrupted or influenced by these sounds, drawing the reader in with the sensory details. This approach can help set the tone and establish a strong sense of place in your story.
