His show on Radio Belgrano meant for him achieving the nickname “Manos Brujas” (Spellbinding Hands), which was the title of a foxtrot by José María Aguilar that he played at the beginning of each show with his orchestra. His first singer was Teófilo Ibáñez, successful interpreter of the tangos “Gólgota”, “La novena” and the milonga “Campo afuera”. Later came Andrés Falgás who was a boom with “Queja indiana”, “Griseta”, “La chacarera” and “Cicatrices”.
Subsequently, the singer Jorge Ortiz, probably the most successful in the orchestra, joined them, he later joined Miguel Caló, but soon he came back to Biagi with whom he felt more at ease. His biggest hits were “Yuyo verde”, “Indiferencia”, “Pájaro ciego”, “Misa de once” and “Soledad la de Barracas”.
