• Surrey Brass needed a graphic, logo, to make it more recognisable - it's our brand image!

• We wanted something simple (so we could draw it!).

• We wanted something that would work in black and white, and colour too so we could use it on concert programmes, letterheads, etc.

• We wanted something we could embroider on T-shirts, put on CD's and merchandise, if we ever get round to doing that!

• The first part of the design is brought to you courtesy of the letter "S".

• The next part is brought to you courtesy of the letter "B"
  (well, if it sounds like Sesame Street we did say it had to be simple!).

• The Green symbolises the leafy county of Surrey.

• The Gold symbolises the colour of brass (and maybe a bit of hot playing too!)

• The Purple makes the other two colours stand out sharply, emphasising the two halves of the design. (Colours become black and white in the simplified monochrome design).

• The final part, adapted from the "Yin Yang" idea, symbolises the harmony between brass music and the county of Surrey. Hopefully!

• The entire design, which is not quite symmetric, is based on two sets of concentric circles, one above the other. To be honest we haven't a clue what this symbolises, but we'll make something plausible up later.

• Spotted the swan yet? Well, there are a lot of rivers in Surrey.....
