He outperforms in improving a musical discussion with band mates. Joined with his vibrant yet inconspicuous rhythms and finely made procedure, this stress on collaboration attracts individual band members to him. He plays for the inclination of the music constantly. He never shows off his cleaves unless it is necessary. This attention is reflected in Albert’s statement of the most high qualities that a performer can have "commitment; relentlessness; hold the self-image in line; understand that you are a vehicle for the music…" Albert loves to play off-time signatures.
