WALTWARD'S THEME - Tribute to Edward M. Stegge (Full Picture)
Waltward’s Theme is a short film honoring the career and retirement of Diablo Ballet dancer, Edward M. Stegge. This video celebrates Edward’s many years of hard work put into his passion to promote the arts, and to provide hope, love and appreciation in the young children for the arts. The solo piano version of Waltwar’s Theme can be found in my book MIRAVLE (Vol. V). I came up with the title Waltward’s Theme by combining Edward’s first name and the director’s first name (Walter Yamazaki), whom I worked so closely with on this project.
Walter + Edward = Waltward.
