Albert has created two excellent albums called: "Visionary World" and "Hyperfly", as a composer and an arranger. These particular works contain glimpses of the Mediterranean, the Middle Eastern culture, the Balkans, the Greek folk music, the Blues and the Afro Cuban heritage. All these in a fresh Jazz - Rock - New Age style. It's a musical panorama, an amazing journey through many parts of the globe. The musicians appearing on the albums are also top notch and have contributed to amalgamate the numerous musical currents into a unified whole. The resulting music is a chant for global peace and self development. Radio producers, newspaper and magazine columnists have welcome these works on many articles and interviews. Tunes from the cds have been included in compilations and tv shows.
