Der Gitarrist und Komponist Ferenc Snétberger wurde 1957 in Nordungarn als jüngster Sohn einer Musikerfamilie geboren. Schon im Kindesalter war sein Vater, ebenfalls Gitarrist, sein großes Vorbild. Snétberger studierte klassische Musik und Jazzgitarre und ist heute besonders für seine Improvisationskunst und sein die Genregrenzen überschreitendes Spiel bekannt. Sein Repertoire ist inspiriert von der Roma -Tradition seiner Heimat, der brasilianischen Musik und dem Flamenco ebenso wie von der klassischen Gitarre und dem Jazz. Er hat zahlreiche Alben unter eigenem Namen veröffentlicht und eine Reihe weiterer als Ko-Leader und Sideman. Sein Konzertreisen führten ihn durch ganz Europa, Japan, Korea, Indien und die USA. 1995 komponierte er das Concerto für Gitarre und Orchester "IN MEMORY FOR MY PEOPLE", welches er seinem Volk widmete und  2007  auch im New Yorker   Hauptquartier der Vereinten Nationen anlässlich des Internationalen Holocaust-Gedenktags zur Aufführung kam. 
2005 erschien sein  Trio-Album "NOMAD", eingespielt mit Arild Andersen und Paolo Vinaccia, welches von Publikum und Presse enthusiastisch aufgenommen wurde. Im selben Jahr kam es zum ersten Aufeinandertreffen mit Bobby McFerrin auf dem Veszprémer Sommerfestspielen, festgehalten auf Snéberger´s DVD (Snétberger live in Veszprém- solo/duo/trio. Seit einigen Jahren arbeitet er immer wieder  mit dem Trompeter  Markus Stockhausen,  zu hören auf "FOR MY People", "JOYOSA" und zuletzt entstand die gemeinsame DUO- CD "STREAMS".
