Join us for our Guitar Masters Series 2026-27 season opener UK classical guitarist Jack Hancher, a '...youthful intensity tempered by sophisticated musical intelligence...' (Gramophone Magazine), on Saturday, September 19, at 7:30pm at the Ethical Society of St. Louis.
Described by Gendai Guitar Magazine as a “poet and a painter, colouring sounds out of the guitar as if his imagination and the guitar were one”, Jack Hancher is a rising star of the classical guitar.
In 2024, Jack released his debut album “The Memory Garden” on the Deux-Elles label to critical acclaim. The album consists of music by English composers and features two new commissions by Dani Howard and Laura Snowden. In 2026, Jack will present his second album "Muse", which will be released on 9/18 (one day before his concert in St. Louis!). The album will feature his arrangements of piano works by Debussy, Ravel, Satie, Mompou and Albéniz alongside works written for guitar by Falla and José.
