Francesca was the eldest child in the family of gifted musicians. Her mother (Barbara Sidonia Margaretha Toeschi), a dancer, and her father (Innocenz Danzi), an Italian cellist, were the core of the elite elector Mannheim court performers in the late 1750s. Her brothers, Franz (Ignaz) and Johann Baptist, were cellist and violinist respectively and were successful composers. Karl Joseph (Carlo Giuseppe) Toeschi, a violinist, composer and conductor, was her maternal uncle. She made her first public appearance as a singer at the age of 16 and the following year was engaged by the Mannheim Opera. There seems to be some debate whether she first performed in Gassmann's L’amore artigiano in May 1772, or Sacchini's La Contadina in Corte, the role for which she earned the title of court musician (virtuosa da camera). She stayed with the Mannheim court opera for four years and was cast in the premier roles: Parthenia in Anton Schweitzer's Alceste (1775, Schlosstheater Schwetzingen), and Anna in Holzbauer's Günther von Schwarzburg (1777), a role composed specifically for her voice. At twenty-one she traveled to London to sing four opera series by J.C. Bach & Sacchini. In 1778, she married the oboe virtuoso and composer Ludwig August Lebrun (1752–1790) from Mannheim.
