Dear Sir or Madam Superstar,

First of all, thank you for reading!

Here's the deal. We have an old logo that was designed by the founder's wife. It is very last century. We have looked at other orchestra websites and we would REALLY love to have a logo that is not in curly script, but perhaps a block font.

Here are some other ideas to get you started:

We really love Orchestra Nova's branding: http://orchestranova.org

Also the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's branding too. http://cso.org

Who are we? We are a small, volunteer orchestra in Austin Texas, founded in 1977. Oldest community orchestra in Austin, but never a lot of... marketing know-how, you know?  We want to innovate, partner, expand, but our brand is holding us back.  Our marketing manager just got the axe, leaving me, development director (very part time) in the "oh-Sh*t now what do I do" boat. In the middle of the north sea. With a strong wind. And no rations. 

Our website is http://austincivicorchestra.org but let's face it, that ALSO needs help, so don't feel constrained by those colors. We want to make a new wordpress site but the committee is slow to agree on when and how.

Any advice or ideas you have would be appreciated beyond measure. Plus, I will give you free fundraising advice if you have a cause you care about. I've written a book, so I could also throw in that e-version too.

Very very grateful to you for everything,

Mazarine
