Biography
Delia Steinberg studied music from an early age and, at the age of 17, graduated from the National Conservatory of Music in Buenos Aires as Teacher of Piano and Composition. She then continued her studies under the Argentine concert pianist Flora Nudelman, and later with the Russian master Hubert Brandenburg. Nudelman herself had been a pupil of Jorge Lalewicz, who had studied under Anatoly Lyadov and Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov.
She completed her studies with a master's degree in Philosophy from the University of Buenos Aires, and took specialist courses in Archaeology and History, exact sciences, journalism and advertising.
In 1972 she became the Director of New Acropolis in Spain and, since the death of its founder and first international director, Jorge Livraga, in 1991, she has been the international president of the organization.
In 1982 she founded the New Acropolis International Piano Competition, which has been held annually in Madrid (Spain), and in 2008 was renamed the Delia Steinberg International Piano Competition. This competition has been a member of the Alink-Argerich Foundation (AAF), promoted by the Argentine pianist Martha Argerich, since December 2007. The competition is recognised for attracting a large number of entries and for the technical and artistic level of its participants. In 1988 she founded Tristan Music Institute to promote music internationally.
In 1974 she became the editor of the magazine "Cuadernos de Cultura" (Cultural Notebooks) and from 2000 has edited the magazine "Esfinge" (Sphinx), published in Madrid (Spain) with the sponsorship of New Acropolis.
