His biggest influences are his father, The Beatles, and Andres Segovia. Benedetti’s guitar has taken him throughout the United States, England, Germany, the Czech Republic, Canada, Taiwan and Mexico. He has played locally as a solo act, as part of a guitar duo, and in a trio with his daughters. Benedetti has appeared onstage with the San Diego Symphony, San Diego Opera, Starlight Opera, American Ballet Company, Luciano Pavarotti, and Dave Brubeck. He is an emeritus professor of music at Grossmont College where he is the head of the guitar studies program. Dignitaries he has performed for include the King and Queen of Malaysia, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Ravi Shankar. And he did get to play for his idol Andres Segovia, in 1986.
