Award Winning Actor - Performance Coach
Meet Dietlinde.
Dietlinde Turban Maazel’s first stage appearance at the age of 19 as ‘Gretchen’ in Goethe’s Faust at Munich’s State Theatre brought her national fame. Thanks to scores of films and TV plays, she won Germany’s coveted Bambi Award as Best Actress of the Year (1983). Among her film credits: the title role in Goethe’s Stella, Luise in Schiller’s Love and Intrigue, Euridice in Monteverdi’s Orfeo (directed by J.-P. Ponnelle), Bloodline (Sidney Sheldon) and Mussolini and I, starring opposite Anthony Hopkins.
As CEO and Artistic Director of the prestigious Castleton Festival which she co-founded in 1997 with her late husband, the conductor Lorin Maazel, on their country estate in Virginia, she continues to offer Residencies for emerging professional artists year-round.
Dietlinde Turban Maazel loves to perform, but her real passion is teaching.
Patience is the key. And curiosity. It’s the process, not the result. We walk across a tightrope together, taking risks – knowing there is a safety net.
