Early years and the orchestra
Interviewees describe Troilo's playing as a blend of Pedro Maffia's expressiveness and Pedro Laurenz's force. The narration says he joined Elvino Vardaro's sextet in 1933 and founded his own orchestra in 1937. Speakers credit Orlando Goñi's piano and Francisco Fiorentino's singing as key parts of its sound. The film also describes Astor Piazzolla joining as a young bandoneonist, and Troilo's habit of cutting back the arrangements he received.

Singers and poets
The film lists many of the orchestra's singers, including Alberto Marino, Floreal Ruiz, Edmundo Rivero and Roberto Goyeneche. Interviewees say Troilo taught his singers how to phrase. The episode then turns to his songs with the poets Homero Manzi and Cátulo Castillo, such as Barrio de tango, Sur and María. It also tells how Troilo wrote Responso after Manzi died.
