I've heard Johan Albert's Op. 18, it was broadcasted on a dutch radio and can still be heard right here : http://deklassieken.radio4.nl/uitzending/3068/de-klassieken.html
It's fairly mendelssohnian indeed, and I enjoyed it ( actually, I'm quite interested in mendelssohnian music these days, by Mendelssohn or others). I've seen some bios of Johan Albert and I've heard some short excerpts of other music (was it Lucifer??? Can't remember quite well, but I was not convinced so much). It would be nice to hear something else.
I see that Gerrit Jan's Violin sonata is available on YouTube as well. Closer to Schumann IMHO.
