Ferenc Snétberger has been internationally hailed by critics and audiences as one of the few genuinely distinctive voices on contemporary guitar. With every performance he takes the listeners on a different journey (of surprise, wonder, and emotion) through his stylistically own world of classical and jazz music, influenced and informed by native gypsy tunes, flamenco guitar techniques, samba rhythms and, of course, by Bach.
He has released several albums of his own, and has contributed to many more. He has appeared in concert in almost every European country, as well as in Japan, Korea, India, Vietnam, and the United States. In the summer of 2018, he was awarded with Germany's most prestigious distinction, the JTI Trier Jazz Award.
"I'm looking forward to playing solo in this great hall for the first time. My programme will mainly consist of new compositions and standards that I have never played before. As in most of my concerts, it can happen that spontaneous improvisations flow into my concert. The space, the ambience, and the audience always affect me, the atmosphere inspires me... and if all goes well, something great can come about.”
