Caney Creek Old Harp Singing
Beech Grove Primitive Baptist Church
Caney Creek Road, Pigeon Forge, Sevier County, Tennessee
Sunday, June 27, 2021
All selections from New Harp of Columbia, Restored Edition, 2001.
The annual singing at The Beech Grove Primitive Baptist Church in Sevier County TN (the very old Caney Creek singing), preceded by dinner on the grounds at noon. Twenty singers, including several we'd never seen before. The unusual arrangement of the singing square is the customary one for this singing: Altos in the (liturgical) East, facing basses in the West. Leads in the South, facing trebles in the North. We sang for longer than usual (went around twice), partly because it was raining so hard we couldn't leave the church anyway.
