'Video Games Live' producer Tommy Tallarico's new project is 'Electronic Opus' — classical meets electronic dance music

Video Games Live concert producer Tommy Tallarico has teamed up with electronic dance music (EDM) artist Brian Transeau to create a new album-concert series dubbed Electronic Opus.

The venture takes Tallarico beyond his roots in video games to EDM in support of Transeau, who plans to create a blend of a classical symphony orchestra and high-energy electronic dance tunes. The album and concert series are expected to debut in March.
