The sound of a guitarist's hand pretending it isn't nervous.
means A rapid trembling or wavering effect on a musical note, produced by quickly repeating it or fluctuating its pitch or volume.
from From Italian 'tremolo,' meaning 'trembling' or 'shaking,' which descends from Latin 'tremulus' (trembling), itself from the verb 'tremere,' 'to tremble.' The word entered musical vocabulary as a direct borrowing from Italian, the dominant language of musical notation and technique since the Renaissance — a cousin to 'tremor' and 'tremendous,' all shivering from the same Latin root.
