Welcome to Week 45 of the year of Dance where we focus this week on the old folk song Jennie put your kettle on from 1803. Jennie put the kettle on, Polly blow the dinner horn, Jennie put the kettle on, We'll all have tea. Jennie plays the kettle drum, Polly blows the slide trombone, Mama plays the clarinet, And Daddy's leaving home! This painting somehow came to Ms Dance' memory and she painted this image to record the memory. What were you doing in 1803 ? |
