"A Soldier's Tale" by Stravinsky. Tiran's directing debut (2010) with Georg Büchner's "Woyzeck" in which he also played the title role, earned him a well-deserved critical acclaim as a theater director. In March 2011 Tiran and Kurt Masur met again, this time in the "Davis Symphony Hall" of San Francisco together with the San Francisco Symphony for the performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream.
The San Francisco Chronicle called Tiran's impersonations "relevant and virtuosic".
