30 years – Solo Concert of Ferenc Snétberger (guitar) A Zeneakadémia saját szervezésű programja

The career of Ferenc Snétberger reaches its 30th year this year, an anniversary that could be celebrated in no better way than by allowing the audience of the Grand Hall to meet once again the master by himself, on stage, with a guitar. The fact is that this instrument always speaks eloquently when in the hands of this great artist, unfolding a story about the youngest son who started out from a small town in north Hungary, and whose remarkable talent meant that he could have played guitar just like Al Di Meola or George Benson because all the necessary expertise was already there, in his fingers. Instead, he chose the difficult path: he sought out his own style in which elements of his earlier classical music training, Roma tradition, flamenco and jazz are present at one and the same time. And this approach lifted him out of the crowded international field, earning him a place along with such greats as vocalist Bobby McFerrin and legendary bass guitarist Richard Bona.
