ELECTRONIC MUSIC MERGES WITH SYMPHONY IN UPCOMING ALBUM AND CONCERT: ELECTRONIC OPUS

Multi-Platinum EDM Recording Artist BT Joins Composer and Producer Tommy Tallarico to Blend EDM and Symphonic Orchestrations for New Music Projects; Kickstarter Effort Launches

Combining the talents of multi-platinum EDM recording artist, film composer, and technologist Brian Transeau (BT) and the award-winning composer and Video Games Live creator Tommy Tallarico, Electronic Opus features BT's signature EDM hits re-imagined, re-arranged and remixed with a full orchestra. Produced by BT, Tallarico, and TanZ Group, the Electronic Opus album arrives on March 29, 2015. The live concert experience kicks off on the same date at Miami's Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts during the Miami Winter Music Conference. Starting today, fans can directly support this new musical endeavor via the Electronic Opus Kickstarter. Seeking a goal of $200,000 to fund the album recording session with a full orchestra, the Kickstarter campaign features an impressive collection of rewards levels for fans, ranging from a signed copy of the album, to the exclusive album release party in Hollywood, to a personalized song composed by BT. The Kickstarter runs through December 10, 2014.

"This collaboration is an acoustical merging of tradition and technology, not simply symphonic versions of popular EDM songs," says Tommy Tallarico, creative director and executive producer, Electronic Opus. "This 'electronic symphonic' collaboration reinvents what a 21st century symphonic experience can be: incredible high-energy, melodic electronic music from one of the top artists in the field blended with the artistic and cultural merits of a full symphony. Electronic Opus will dazzle and entertain music lovers of all ages."

Electronic Opus: The Album

Electronic Opus will showcase BT's ultimate talents as a classically trained musician and composer with a unique focus on merging technology and music production. The album will feature new hybrid symphonic electronic arrangements of BT's greatest and most popular hits over the past 25 years, including Skylarking, Flaming June, Dreaming, and more.
