What is vibrato?
Vibrato will give the sound more warmth and expressiveness, sting players make liberal use of vibrato. The word litteraly means "vibrating" or "quivering" and it implies performinga note with a slight rapid and regular varations of pitch. In string players it is produced by rocking the finger of the left hand which is stopping the string - thus it cannot be applied to a note produced by an open string, nor to very short notes.
Is an instrumental technique that in the case of string players consists of a quick back and forth movement or rocking of the finger that is in contact with the string with the intent of producing?
vibrato
What vibrates to produce the sound on a baritone?
When someone wants to perform vibrato, there actually isn't any vibrating going on! (well except for the string, but the string always vibrates when playing the violin) When vibrato is performed correctly, the person actually wiggles his finger which varies the pitch to create a vibrating sound.
