Composed by B.F. White. Arranged by Todd Marchand. Folk,Sacred,Traditional. Score and part. 7 pages. Con Spirito Music #693741. Published by Con Spirito Music (A0.1089531)."BEACH SPRING" is a hymn tune attributed to Benjamin Franklin White (1800-1879), co-editor of The Sacred Harp shape-note hymnal, where the tune was published in 1844. Paired there with a text beginning "Come, ye sinners, poor and needy," it has served as accompaniment for various other hymn texts since.
Although attributed to White, the pentatonic tune (comprising five notes — degrees 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 of the major scale) is likely of folk origin. In this arrangement, the tune is presented three times: first by trombone with piano accompaniment; next by flute and piano; and after a modulation up one step, by trombone and piano in a new harmonization with descending chromatic bass line.
An ideal choice for offertory or communion solo, "BEACH SPRING" may be performed by trombone and piano alone, as the flute melody in the second verse is present in the piano as well.
