I am glad it worked out. The Beam #'positions always take a pair of numbers
as argument, written as = #'(n . m), where n and m are the absolute position
of the beginning of the beam and the end of the beam, respectively (unit =
distance between two staff lines). n and m can be negative values and they
do not need to be multiples of unit (so for instance, you can write
\override Beam #'positions = #'(-1.2 . 3.75) )

Some examples: \override Beam #'positions = #'(0 . 0) would create a flat
beam exactly on the centre line of the staff; \override Beam #'positions =
#'(0 . 2) will be a beam from the centre line of the staff to the top of it
(2 spaces above).

Take care,
Gilberto
