Sunbeam is a charming intermezzo with a lovely summery feel about it The front cover of the original sheet music shows in pastel colours the sunbeam herself, a beautiful young lady in flowing dress with an armful of huge roses. Its form is AABBACCBB with a 6-bar introduction whereby the AABBA- and CCBB- strains are in the major keys of F and Eb respectively. The melodies are brought out particularly well in this all tenor/bass affair and the 1st tenor has the honour of having them all from start to finish.
