Fred Benedetti and George Svoboda have been playing together for over fifteen years. They are known as engaging and entertaining performers whose tunes can stir up emotions in the deepest corners of the soul.
Echoes of Spain is a collage of traditional classical and contemporary guitar music reflecting peaceful melancholy ballads to fiery flamenco rumbas. From dynamic improvisations to eerie and passionate melodies, Fred and George invoke rich romantic traditions with elements of gypsy instrumental wizardry.
Celebrated around the world as engaging and entertaining performers for more than 20 years, this virtuoso guitar duo invite you on a new unforgettable journey with fiery finger work and sublime melodies in a dynamic variety of music that will dazzle and delight.
Spanish Gardens is an exciting and eclectic mix of virtuoso guitar music in a variety of styles and moods.
The music sparkles with brilliance and the colors of flamenco puro, flamenco nouveau, classical and Middle-Eastern are mixed together to create a brilliant masterpiece.
The Guitar is passion: intimate, gentle, soft, strong, rhythmic and dreamy. As the great Andres Segovia once said, "there is no obstacle between the instrument and the heart. The guitar is a small voice in the midst of the world's noise. This is why the world is listening".
On Fred and George's debut release, Flamenco Dreams, this remarkable guitar duo present an array of songs that range from peace melancholy ballads to fiery flamenco rumbas. The traditional Spanish flamenco flair is melded with southwest Novelle Flamenco nuance.
Hi Benedetti & Svoboda, Heaven & Earth is on hiatus now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist Steve Priest to reform "Sweet". For those of you unfamiliar with the band, Sweet originally formed in the early 70s and went on to sell over 40,000,000 albums with 11 International Top Ten Hits such as "Ballroom Blitz", "Little Willy", "Love is Like Oxygen", "Fox on the Run", "Teenage Rampage", "Action", "Blockbuster", "Hellraiser" and many others.
This reincarnation of the band reformed last year, playing their first show in June, and went on to play festivals throughout Canada and the States and had played to over 300,000 people before the year was out. During this tour last year they recorded a live CD available on Amazon entitled "Sweet, Live in America" which has received rave reviews - pick up a copy and please Add Sweet As Your Friend On Myspace!

Hi there Benedetti & Svoboda first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
We have also built a pretty big music community which you are welcome to join if you want to meet new artists like yourself!
