Both are members of the cavalry:

Judging from their schoulderboards, the man standing could be a Hauptman (captain), and they guy sitting could be an Oberleutnant (First Leutenant).
Edit: the items fitted on the shoulderboards might not be one or two pips denoting rank, but regimental numbers. Both are junior officers however.
They guy sitting is indeed a member of a musiccorps.
