He came to the United States in 1930 and the rest of his life was spent in performance and scholarship. Biggs had a live weekly radio show from 1942-1958, which popularized organ music. He performed with many major symphonies, and had numerous recordings. He was largely responsible for introducing the Baroque music of Handel and Bach to America.
