U+1D16A "𝅪" Musical Symbol Fingered Tremolo-1 Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

𝅪

U+1D16A "𝅪" Musical Symbol Fingered Tremolo-1 is a notation mark used in musical scores to indicate that two notes, typically a whole step apart, should be played as a rapid alternation produced by the fingers rather than the bow, a technique common on string instruments like the violin or guitar. This symbol, part of the Musical Symbols Unicode block, visually resembles two small angled lines placed between the note stems, signaling a specific tremolo effect where the performer rapidly repeats the indicated pitch or alternates between two pitches. It is distinct from bowed tremolo, as fingered tremolo relies on dexterity of the left hand, and it is essential for accurately conveying the composer's intended articulation in modern and classical sheet music.
