That's not a beam but a phrasing slur, and at that point in the score, a phrasing slur seems like an odd choice: it usually extends over whole phrases rather than joining two notes. You probably want a straight slur, gotten with `(` and `)`. A beam is a straight line substituting for flags on a note stem and connecting several notes of length 1/8 or shorter. -- David Kastrup
