Pinky Tremolo

[anacrusis]

Anyone here utilize this technique? I just started working on it a few weeks ago, and it wasn't as difficult as one might think.

Can you explain is pinky tremolo? How dose it different from normal tremolo?

[anacrusis]

Instead of executing the tremolo with ami or iami, you do it all with your pinky finger. Jorge Caballero uses the technique in "Pictures at an Exhibition".

[Toccata]

It gives more of a fluttering effect rather than the traditional tremolo sound--it would never work in Tarrega's "Recuerdos" or Rodrigo's "Invocation and Dance"!

I guess, this is technique utilized (invented?) by Yamashita for his Pictures at an Exhibition transcription.

Tremolo with just one finger - the pinky? I would love to see a video of that?
