Ronnie Banerjee
Ronnie Banerjee is an opera-lover and a scientist. Their very first opera was a Salome at the Leipzig Staatsoper. They are a Canadian researcher with a PhD in nanobiomaterials from Saskatoon, where they worked at the Canadian Light Source (a synchrotron), and occasionally scared personnel there with bad renditions of the confrontation scene from Maria Stuarda. They are presently based in Colorado, and look forward to visiting the Met one day.
Following last week’s performances in Cleveland, Ronnie Banerjee compares six different versions of the Kostelnicka’s monologue from Leos Janácek’s Jenufa for “Perspectives on an Aria”
