How is très vibré played?
Increase the perceived vibrato clearly while maintaining a usable pitch centre and coordination with the phrase. On strings this normally involves the left-hand oscillation; singers, woodwind and brass players use the instrument-appropriate control available to them. The direction can heighten an emotionally intense moment, but it does not universally demand the broadest possible pitch swing, one fixed rate or maximum emotional effect: vibrato extent, rate, shape, onset and release remain distinct and context-dependent. It is functionally close to Italian molto vibrato and stronger in degree than ordinary avec vibrato, while exact realization remains local. Keep dynamics, articulation, register and tone colour independent unless the score explicitly couples them.
How does très vibré sound?
The listener hears a hot, throbbing, emotionally saturated tone with a conspicuously wide pitch swing.
In context
French très marks a high degree, while vibrato research distinguishes rate, extent, shape, pitch and amplitude modulation, and onset or offset behaviour. Wide or slow vibrato may contribute to perceived intensity in a particular style, but the phrase itself does not prescribe that one combination or an automatic emotional climax. Très vibré contrasts with sans vibrato by requiring conspicuous vibrato, without defining one universal most expansive form. No proposed short form reached three independent direct expansions of the exact complete headword, so très vibré is written in full.
