BIOGRAPHY

Albert is board chair of Hammermusik Productions, an amateur violist, and a general music fiend. When not musical, Albert is the Chief Compliance Officer for CTC Trading Group, a leading global trading firm based in Chicago with offices in New York, London, and Amsterdam. Having studied the violin as a youth and spent many evenings at the famed Orchestra Hall and Ravinia Festival enchanted and inspired by the great conductors and musicians of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (and the many other legendary artists that have passed through), Albert has a passion for the music of Chicago and for promoting it within the city and sharing it with the rest of the world. To these ends, Albert has previously been board chair of the former Spektral Quartet and, with his wife Amanda, have hosted numerous musical events in their home in the historic Lakewood-Balmoral neighborhood of Chicago. Albert is honored to be a part of Hammermusik and its unique vision.
