She studied voice at the Parma Conservatory with Ettore Campogalliani and at the L'Accademia di La Scala with Giulio Confalonieri. In 1954 she made her professional opera debut at La Scala as Barbarina in ''Le nozze di Figaro'' with Elisabeth Schwarzkopf as the Countess, Irmgard Seefried as Susanna, Mario Petri as the Count, and Rolando Panerai as Figaro. She returned frequently to that house through 1962, singing such roles as Gretel in ''Hänsel und Gretel'', Amore in Christoph Willibald Gluck's ''Orfeo ed Euridice'', Nannetta in Giuseppe Verdi's ''Falstaff'', Lucieta in Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari's ''I quatro rusteghi'', and Musetta in Giacomo Puccini's ''La bohème''. She also portrayed the title role in the Italian premiere of Leoš Janáčeks' ''The Cunning Little Vixen'' at La Scala in 1958. In 1956 Adani made her first appearance at La Fenice as Elena in Nino Rota's ''Il cappello di paglia di Firenze''. She returned there periodically through 1968 in such roles as Anna in ''Die Jahreszeiten'', Norina in ''Don Pasquale'', and Zerlina in ''Don Giovanni''. In 1957 she married bass Giorgio Tadeo, with whom she has two children. That same year she made her debut at the Teatro della Piccola Scala as Sofia in Riccardo Malipiero's ''La donna è mobile''.

She was often found at the Teatro di San Carlo, where she appeared as late as 1983 as Donizetti's Rita. She also was a repeat performer at the Teatro Regio di Torino, the Teatro Massimo, the Teatro Lirico Giuseppe Verdi, and the Teatro Comunale di Bologna.
