KHS America, home of Jupiter Winds, Mapex Drums, Majestic Percussion, and XO Professional Brass in the U.S. is proud to announce the extension and expansion of their partnership with the Pacific Crest Youth Arts Organization of Diamond Bar, California.

This relationship will continue to feature Pacific Crest Drum and Bugle Corps performing exclusively on Jupiter Marching Brass, Mapex Drums, and Majestic Percussion, but has also been expanded to include the use of XO Professional Trumpets.

“The opportunity to add XO trumpets to our line immediately enhances the tone and expressiveness of our ensemble,” notes Stuart Pompel, Executive Director of Pacific Crest. “We are grateful for the continued support from KHS and their confidence in our members and staff to deliver on our promise of excellence in all aspects of our program.”

Chris Hankes, School Music Business Unit Manager for KHS America adds, “We are honored that Pacific Crest continues to choose Jupiter, Mapex and Majestic instruments as the voice of their productions. They have proven to be an organization with a vision and a true partner. By continuing to work in support of their youth programs, we are confident that we are helping to change lives through music.”

Pacific Crest is one of North America’s most respected performing arts programs, and touches the lives of 2,500 students each year. The program attracts students who want to perform at the highest levels of the marching arts. Pacific Crest has also appeared in cinema broadcasts, on television shows and commercials, and in world-class venues, including the Orange County Performing Arts Center, Rose Bowl, and Hollywood Bowl. As a member of Drum Corps International (DCI), Pacific Crest competes in World Class, the highest competitive division in DCI. They represent the City of Diamond Bar and the Southern California Region as one of 22 teams in Marching Music’s Major Leagues.
