Talented classical oboist and title character of the story "The Man Who Played the Oboe!" in the Anglo-American comic book Grand Slam Three Aces Comics #47 (October 1945). He is the second man to play Heigel's extremely difficult Fantasia for the Oboe in the United States. The first was Ferdinand Cochini, 15 years ago (so, 1930).
Alberti triumphantly completes the piece without error, but is immediately shot dead. Hero Dr. Destine and his sidekick Rugged have to solve the case. Turns out it was a jealous Cochini; Dr. Destine catches him and turns him over to the cops.
