Excuse me, but are we talking about some rare forgotten curiosity of
someones articulation or a term on par with vibrato, considering
modern termonology. Until now I thought 'tremolo' is a fast
repetition of one or two notes, as in scoring (orchestration/
instrumentation) for bowed strings, but also known as a 'guitar
tremolo'.
I think, David shoud reply what he means.

BTW, the tremolo is more interesting than the vibrato in early
recordings. People stopped using it. And it sure sounds better
without it. I'd trade vibrato for tremolo any day. Nobody talks
about that, but it is the biggest single change in performance in
the 20th century.
Conchita Supervia- Spanish singer, 1895- 1936. Did some very
interesting things with her voice. Also had the ability to refrain
from doing them.
What is tremolo in singing or on melody instrument?
