Stefan Karl Schmid & SJO\CGN - You are the Universe

Limited Edition Compact Disc.

Suite for Jazz Orchestra by Stefan Karl Schmid

Reveal your inner self,

Seeing the world… observe!

All the thoughts you have had,

Recurring and exposing who you really are.

Disengage, dissolve

All that will be or has been.

Ease, amess, erupt:

YOU ARE THE UNIVERSE.

Adjourn.
