Tremolo

<!ELEMENT tremolo EMPTY> <!ATTLIST tremolo    id ID #IMPLIED    %spine_start_end_ref;    tremolo_lines (1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6) #REQUIRED>

Element tremolo is used to encode multi-note tremolos. Tremolo is the rapid repetition of one note in music or a rapid alternation between two or more notes. Here, only the second meaning of the term is dealt with. In order to encode single notes tremolo, the corresponding attribute of chord should be used.
From a graphical point of view, if the tremolo is between two or more notes, a number of bars are drawn between them.
