She studied in Lisbon and Paris. Her debut came on January 5th 1888 performing Bellini's La sonnambula in the San Carlos Theatre in Lisbon. She performed in London, Saint Petersburg, Moscow, Buenos Aires, Warsaw, Madrid, Naples, Montecarlo, Florence and other cities in Europe. Between 1905 and 1906 she recorded arias and songs in Milan with Fonotipia Company. In 1907 she married Dr. Marcelo Torcuato de Alvear, who would become President of Argentina in 1922-1928. From then on she abandoned the stage. In 1934 she instigated the opening of the Casa del Teatro in Buenos Aires.

This double CD presents the recordings by Regina Pacini in Milan. His lyrical soprano voice, extensive and clear possessed an exceptional agility. It helps us to understand her prestige.
