Band Career
Timur and the Dime Museum is a glam-opera LA band formed in 2010. Band members are Timur Bekbosunov, David Tranchina, Daniel Corral, Andrew Lessman and Matthew Setzer.[47] Timur’s voice has been compared to Björk,[48] Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Antony Hegarty and Klaus Nomi.[49] The band appeared on America’s Got Talent Season 5[50] with a cover of “Total Eclipse” by Kristian Hoffman, a songwriter for Klaus Nomi. [51] The band debuted live on the ALOUD series as part of the Los Angeles Public Library Foundation billed as "operatic vaudeville with a bohemian attitude.”[52]

Little at Opera Philadelphia in 2022.[69]
Solo projects
“Black Lodge”
World premiere took place on October 1, 2022 at Opera Philadelphia as part of Festival O22 and the Philadelphia Fringe Festival. Drawing on the mythologies of the surrealist writer William S. Burroughs author of Naked Lunch, Black Lodge is a metal opera that uses dance, rock band, string quartet, and opera.[70] Composed by Grammy-nominated David T. Little with libretto by Beat generation poet Anne Waldman, Black Lodge is a “nonlinear and hallucinatory...occurring in that nightmarish place between death and rebirth” [71] and performed as a film screening and an industrial rock opera concert.[72] Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth said Black Lodge is "ripping through the fabric of future vision psychosis where the integrity of classic form clasps the hands of radical possibilities.” [73] The opera film is directed by Michael Joseph McQuilken.[74] The Wall Street Journal describes vocals sounding "alternately like a baroque countertenor, a baritone, a rocker and a crooner.”[75] Black Lodge was nominated in the 66th Annual Grammy Awards for a Grammy Award for Best Opera Recording. Black Lodge is a winner of the 2023 Music Theater Now Competition.[76]
“The Great Soviet Bucket”
World premiere took place on February 22, 2024 in Miami, Florida.[77] The play is a dark musical comedy that "explores the phenomenon of mass brainwashing.”[78] Co-commissioned by Miami Light Project and Beth Morrison Projects with support from the National Performance Network[79], created by Timur Bekbosunov, produced by Beth Morrison, directed by Emmy Award-nominated Sandra Powers,[80] the play uses a puppet Comrade Bucket and the Soviet songs to ask questions about the intertwined forces of identity and politics.[81] The show is performed by Timur Bekbosunov, pianist Matt Podd and violinist Yvette Cornelia Holzwarth.[82]
“Klaus from Space”
World premiere took place on June 1, 2021 at the Klanggg Festival presented by NOF[83] with electronic artist Grégoire Pasquier aka Shuttle[84] at Nouveau Monde, Switzerland. The show is a sci-fi cabaret inspired by the cult icon Klaus Nomi.[85] The Netherlands premiere took place at O. Festival 2023 at TR Schouwburg Theater Rotterdam,[86] with guitarist and electronic artist Matthew Setzer of Skinny Puppy, bringing together Klaus Nomi’s greatest hits and a world premiere of a ballad by Kristian Hoffman, the curator of the show.[87]
“Collapse”
World-premiere of COLLAPSE, a multimedia glam-rock meets classical baroque Requiem about environment,[88] took place on March 27, 2014 at REDCAT Theater in Los Angeles.[89] The rock opera is composed by Daniel Corral, produced by Beth Morrison Projects, with performances at BAM Next Wave Festival,[90] Miami Light Project[91] and Operadagen Rotterdam Festival 2015 O. Festival.[92] Interactive video projections were designed by Jesse Gilbert with costumes by the fashion designer Victor Wilde of the Bohemian Society. [93]
