Ester Nunez de Arce was born in Naples, and raised in Milan.

[2] Ester Adaberto, a soprano,[3] debuted on the opera stage in 1897, in Pagliacci at the Teatro Nuovo in Mirandola.

[11][12] In March 1915, Adaberto was called away for a family emergency in Italy, and Alice Eversman took over her role in Aida.

[1] She was described as "beautiful and charming",[4] with "a flexible voice of wide range...although at times a metallic quality detracted from the effect.

"[14] She retired from performing in 1917, in grief after the death of her son in World War I. Adaberto died in 1951, aged 79 years, in Milan.
