Etymology

[edit]

Borrowed from Italian tremolo, first-person present indicative of tremolare (“to shake, to tremble”). Origin: 1715-25.

Pronunciation

[edit]

Noun

[edit]

tremolo (countable and uncountable, plural tremolos)

  1. (music) A rapid repetition of the same note, or an alternation between two or more notes. It can also be intended to mean a rapid and repetitive variation in pitch for the duration of a note. It is notated by a strong diagonal bar across the note stem, or a detached bar for a set of notes (or stemless notes).
    • 1880, Felix Leopold Oswald, Summerland Sketches, page 57:
      It commenced with a slow crescendo, so irresistibly lugubrious that two of our dogs at once raised their heads and swelled their voices into a responsive tremolo, which may have been heard and appreciated by their distant relatives.
  2. (music) A variation in the volume of a note or a chord, evoking a tremor or quiver.
  3. (music) The device in an organ that produces a tremolo effect.
