Klaus Nomi mini-biography:
Klaus Sperber (January 24, 1944 – August 6, 1983), better known by his stage name Klaus Nomi, was a German countertenor known for his eclectic music and unusual stage performances. He was active in the New York City music scene in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and became known for his operatic vocal style and elaborate, otherworldly stage persona. Nomi's music combined elements of opera, rock, and electronic music, and he was known for his use of make-up, costumes, and futuristic imagery in his performances. Nomi's career was cut short when he died of complications from AIDS in 1983.
