Albert Syeles is a song writer, film score composer and recording artist.

He is also Chairman and President of Romanza - St. Augustine, Inc. Romanza is dedicated to bringing high quality performing arts and cultural events to the Nation’s Oldest City, St. Augustine, FL.

Albert’s orchestral score is featured in the 2012 documentary film “Galvez”, about our forgotten Spanish hero of the American Revolution, Bernardo de Galvez. (Watch for it on PBS.) Albert’s compositions reflect classical training and a taste for the dramatic. He is at home in a wide variety of genres, and enjoys collaborating in jazz, Latin, pop, country and rock compositions. Albert has recorded with artists from Egypt to England, contributing his performance as a featured soloist on piano, violin, country fiddle, clarinet, accordion, and other instruments… even Hungarian cymbalom.

Sample Reviews:

Piano composition and performance – “Toccata”:

“Franz List came to mind. So did Rachmaninoff but from my POV migod, you have chops!   Seems to blend a bit of jazz phrasing into classical which led me to consider Dave Brubeck as well as possible influences go.  This is just astoundingly good.  I cannot say enough” – Avery T. - Deacon-Harrie

Orchestral composition – “Christabel” violin rhapsody:

“Ah, what a beautifully alluring darkness.  You capture the depth of the subtle yet irresistible attraction perfectly.  The detail and arrangement render a cloying atmosphere rife with unspeakable horror shrouded in a dreamy mist leading one inevitably on.  This is absolutely gorgeous!  Bravo, sir, Bravo!” – Kevin Graves

Collaborative composition and fiddle performance “This Old Box”:

“Great job!   I wasn't expecting country here!   You nailed it with these guys!  Trade the violin for a fiddle and give us some more great music!” - Sir Suicide Jockey
