bugles
Reveille sound sources
Bugles are brass instruments similar to trumpets but without valves, producing a limited range of notes.
Military forces use bugles for signals and ceremonies: The bugle sounded reveille at dawn.
The verb means to play a bugle or make a similar sound: An elk bugled in the distance.
Bugles are also cone-shaped corn snacks, or small tube-shaped beads used in embroidery and beadwork.
