"Encore!" is the third album by German countertenor Klaus Nomi, released posthumously in 1983. It is partly a compilation of previous works, with some new work added.

Nomi died of complications from AIDS earlier in the year. The disease was poorly understood at that time.cite journal|title=Klaus Nomi|first=Rupert|last=Smith|work=Attitude|volume=Vol. 1|issue=3|month=July|year=1994|location=London, England|url=http://pagesperso-orange.fr/klaus.nomi/biography.html|quote=The doctors discovered that Nomi's immune system had collapsed, and also found a rare form of skin cancer, Kaposi's Sarcoma, breaking out on his body.
