DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:





[STEAMPUNK OPERA] On his new solo album, <i>Little Stories</i>, accordionist-composer Eric Stern’s theatrical, wryly funny and occasionally naughty lyrics, memorable tunes and literally operatic vocals take center stage more than they do with his main squeeze, Vagabond Opera. His steampunk-ish songs about chess obsessives, golems, Paris, mysterious ladies and more—some from his recent operetta, <i>Queen of Knives</i>—perfectly suit Stern’s louche gypsy cabaret style, and his affection for his musical heroes, Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill, has never been clearer, or more welcome.&nbsp;<p></p>
