Spanish virtuoso Rafael Aguirre just shared five useful tips for improving your tremolo technique.

Rafael discusses and demonstrates these five key points:

1. Study tremolo as if it were not tremolo.
2. Work on retaining consistent tone and color from each note.
3. Make your tremolo sing.
4. Make sure each finger maintains equal proximity to the strings after plucking.
5. Don’t let the thumb stroke displace your hand position.
