Ein Trompeterkorps war die Nachrichtentruppe einer berittenen Truppe, also der Kavallerie oder der Feldartillerie im Felde. In Friedenszeiten arbeitete es als Musikkorps. Ihre Blütezeit hatten die Trompeterkorps im 19. Jahrhundert. Es gab sie in Preußen, Sachsen, Bayern, Österreich (bis 1866), im Vereinigten Königreich, in Schweden und Frankreich. Frankreich, England und Schweden unterhalten bis heute noch Trompeterkorps zu Repräsentationszwecken. (de) A mounted band is a military or civilian musical ensemble composed of musician playing their instruments while being mounted on an animal. The instrumentation of these bands are limited, with the musician having to play his/her instrument, as well as steer the animal to the designated location. Most mounted bands, therefore, use instruments that can easily be held, such as bugles, horns, and Fanfare trumpets. Timpani and glockenspiels are also a common feature, usually located at the head of a band. Although a band that is mounted on any member of the families Equidae and Camelidae are considered to be a mounted band, horses are most commonly used, mostly being employed in military bands in Europe, North and South America, and some parts of Asia.
