The construct  ends after beat 2, leaving the four eighth notes unbeamed. is there something in the manual beaming syntax that I can use to beam the four notes?

Hi Mike,
I'm afraid your code does not compile due to failed bar checks. I don't see any eighth notes.
Can you re-check the code? :) They are all quarter notes in 3/4 time.

\version "2.19.80"
\language "english"
  \clef treble
  \key c \major
  \time 3/4
<< { d, g d g fs a | d, g d g }
       \\
       { <b d> q <c d> |<b d> q }>>

Mike,

Aside from the bar check fails that still occur after you add the 8, I just removed them to work from a more clean slate...not a problem...

But, what exactly do you want for beams? I can't follow you. As of now, there are 2 sets of 4-note-beamed eighth notes. Looks good.

Where do you want the split exactly? What's the subdivision or screenshot of the outcome?
