VibratoVibrato cycles are influenced
by the style period, genre of the composition, individual composer, timber and texture. A good piece of
advice: when playing in an orchestra, watch the concert master and imitate his vibrato speed.
Also: there
are two kinds of vibrato: tutti and solo. If you are playing with a section and you
are playing the same music, tone the vibrato down. It you are a soloist, then you can let it out more.
