While working on a solo
with a student, we noted that the arranger broke some eighth-note beams
between phrases, and how that made it look more like choral music than
instrumental music...
ME: Do you know why they don't often beam
eighth notes in choir music? (The correct answer, in my experience, is
that each note corresponds to a sung syllable of the text.)
KID: Because otherwise, they can't count it very well?
