Jennifer's Dances Booklet

from Red Thistle Music

The Jennifer’s Dances booklet presents dances composed during the many years that Jennifer Kelly worked as artistic director of The Red Thistle Dancers, and is intended to work in conjunction with the DVD.

This project consists of four elements, designed to work together:

• This booklet containing dance descriptions of 12 social dances and 12 performance dances

• A DVD showing all of the dances as performed by the Red Thistle Dancers

• A CD, which presents the music for the Social Dances recorded by Red Thistle Music

• A CD presenting the music for the Performance Dances recorded by Red Thistle Music
