Keller has also performed various roles in numerous plays in both Europe and America and was nominated for a Tony Award for her performance as Mrs. Bertholt in the 2001 Broadway adaptation of Abby Mann's "Judgment at Nuremberg."
Keller's musical stage career is two-fold.

She has recorded the role for Deutsche Grammophon with Ozawa. Keller has also recited the spoken part in Igor Stravinsky's "Perséphone." In addition, composer Michael Jarrell wrote the melodrama "Cassandre," based on Christa Wolf's novel, for Keller, who performed the world premiere in 1994.
Keller also directs opera, including her first, "Dialogues des Carmélites," for Opéra National du Rhin in 1999. This production subsequently received a semi-staged performance in London that year. She has also directed "Lucia di Lammermoor" for the Washington National Opera and for the Los Angeles Opera. Her directorial debut at the Metropolitan Opera was in a 2004 production of "Don Giovanni."
Keller's earliest film appearances were in "Funeral in Berlin" and the German film "Wild Rider Ltd.." She starred in a series of French films in the 1970s, including "A Loser," "The Right of the Maddest" and "And Now My Love."
