Answer
In the first five seconds of Symphony of Destruction, the sound we hear is an orchestra tuning their instruments, which is done before the beginning of a symphony performance. You can hear the same sound before an opera or symphony concert. After the concertmaster (leader of the violin section) comes onstage and takes a bow, he will turn to the orchestra, signaling them to begin tuning. Directly after tuning the conductor will begin the music.
