Subdividing beams

[William Zeitler]

How would I subdivide tuplets, so the triples are grouped together like:

===-===-===

(I want to do this inside a cadenza if that makes a difference)

\version "2.18.2"
\relative c' {
  \time 1/4
  \cadenzaOn
  \tuplet 9/8 { c'16[ d c b c b a b a] }
  \cadenzaOff
}

Many thanks!
