The music-loving Ferdinando was often a guest at the palace of Vincenzo Grimani, and accompanied Tarquini himself at a private concert on harpsichord or spinet.

In 1693, she was in Ferrara at the Teatro Bonacossi and sang in a performance of Bernardo Pasquini's Lisimaco alongside the famous castrato Domenico Cecchi [it] called il Cortona; she was announced with the Italianized surname of her husband as Vittoria Farinelli.
