The clarion call of a trumpet could be used to signify a ceasefire and a parley at sieges with the rider trotting forward, perhaps in some trepidation, as although heralds and messengers were technically non-combatants and were to be offered all the dignities of their position, it was not always so...
Our richly dressed fellow could be used as a herald, or accompanying his Lord General on the battlefield. He can also be added to regular cavalry regiments as a more flamboyantly dressed Trumpeter as was the custom of the time if money allowed!
Either way, gorgeously dressed with hanging sleeves, rich brocade and plumed hat, this chap will be a joy to paint and a fine addition to your Thirty Years War armies or on the blood-soaked British battlefields during the English Civil Wars...
