Rodolfo Biagi
Rodolfo Biagi (March 14, 1906, in Buenos Aires – September 24, 1969) was an Argentine orchestra conductor, composer, and pianist whose nickname was "manos brujas" ("magic hands") and who is considered an important figure associated with tango music.
From 1935 to 1938, he worked as the pianist for Juan D'Arienzo's tango orchestra. In 1938, he founded his own orquesta típica.
His playing style tended to favor dancers with a fast rhythm. As a composer, he is especially remembered for the music of the tango Indiferencia and the milonga Campo afuera, with lyrics by Homero Manzi.
