==Career==
Born in Vienna, Stein was of Jewish heritage, the daughter of Sophie Bachmann and musician Erwin Stein. She came to the UK just before the Second World War.〔(Obituary: The Earl of Harewood. ''The Telegraph'', 11 July 2011. Accessed 16 February 2013 )〕 She attended the Royal College of Music and became good friends with composer Benjamin Britten. By 1949, as Countess of Harewood, and with the patronage of her mother-in-law, Princess Mary, Stein was chatelaine of the magnificent Palladian Harewood House, north of Leeds, and threw herself into organising events. In March 1950, she created an opera-inspired fancy dress ball in aid of Britten’s English Opera Group, featuring Frederick Ashton and Moira Shearer dancing the tango from the ballet ''Façade''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/10683525/Marion-Thorpe-obituary.html )〕〔Peter, NDJ (9 March 2014), "Marion Thorpe, wife of former North Devon MP and Liberal leader Jeremy Thorpe, dies at age 87", ''North Devon Journal'' (Barnstaple), archived from the original on 2014-03-09 ()〕 In September 1950, she was reported as being pregnant and "planning to attend every night" of the Leeds Triennial Musical Festival which featured a performance by Britten. She was the joint founder in 1961 (along with Fanny Waterman) of the Leeds International Pianoforte Competition. She also collaborated with Fanny Waterman on ''Piano Lessons'', a successful piano tutor.
In 1973, she was a guest on BBC Radio 4's ''Desert Island Discs''〔(BBC - Desert Island Discs ), BBC Radio 4, 29 December 1973.〕 and she was an occasional panellist on the BBC music quiz ''Face the Music''.
