Life and career

Born in Vignola, Modena, at 16 years old, while making her accountancy studies, Musiani started singing in the dance halls of her region.

In 1966, after taking part in a singing contest with a cover version of The Monkees' "I'm a Believer", she was put under contract by CBS. In 1967 Musiani got her first success with "Ode per Billie Joe", a cover version of Bobbie Gentry's "Ode to Billie Joe". In the following years she took part to the most important musical events in Italy, including Canzonissima, Cantagiro, Festivalbar and two editions of the Sanremo Music Festival, in 1974 and in 1975.

Musiani later became active on stage as an operetta singer and actress, before dying prematurely, aged 35, because of a car crash in the Autostrada del Sole.
