I understood it to mean that tremolo is playing two different notes in quick
succession, while vibrato is changing the pitch of one note. So you
technically wouldn't be able to do "vibrato" on a clarinet, but you could do
tremolo with fast fingers.
If an instrument doesn't have a digital pitch (i.e., trombone vs tuba,
violen vs clarinet, etc) then distinguishing the two can be confusing, I'd
guess.
