In a history of music class I took, they casually suggested that all instruments closest to the sound and expressiveness of a human voice were among the most popular (see saxophones and guitars with tremolo). This seems to be yet another example of that.
- xster 8y agoSeems pretty hard to produce a tremolo effect with human voice. Did you perhaps mean vibrato (which can be produced with a (mislabeled) tremolo bar on a guitar)?

- arafa 8y agoI was talking about the instruments, but yes vibrato would be one way that would be mirrored in the human voice.
- Nition 8y agoMy personal suspicion is that the best instruments let you change the volume and to some extent the timbre of the sound as well as the pitch. Guitar and piano are some of the most popular instruments and have those features, but don't sound much like human voice (talk box pedals excluded...).
