What are French Beams?
French Beams are where for 16th notes or shorter note values
(multiple beams, in other words) the stems for any inner notes only
reach the first beam, leaving empty space between all the pairs of
beams. The first and last notes of each beamed group reach all the
way to the top beam.

Also, often in French beams staff lines will be removed between beams
so that only white space is seen--no stems or staff lines.
