The daughter of a Bolognese noble family. Together with her sister, she entrusted at the age of 8 to the Camaldolese monastery of Santa Christina in Bologna which had a special name because of its music. She probably received music lessons there from her aunt Camilla Bombacci who was organist, novice master and later abbess of the monastery. Her musical education was probably also provided by the organist of S. Petronio (and unofficial kapellmeister of the monastery) Ottavio Vernizzi (1549-1649). Vizana composed the motets of the ''Componimenti musicali'' in the style of the ''Seconda pratica''.
