At the age of 17 she interrupted her ambitious career and followed the advice of the director of the court opera to have her voice trained at the Conservatory in Milan . In 1841 she returned to Munich and became the celebrated star of the court opera ensemble.

Karoline Hetzenecker stepped down from the stage in 1849 at the age of 27 and married the government councilor of Mangstl. Moritz von Schwind , who felt a special affection for the singer, portrayed the love story between the two in his picture cycle The Symphony .
