Just needed to add the \once command (since I have other tremolos
--tremolii???-- that behave ok)

\version "2.19.80"

\language "english"

\new Staff {

  \clef bass
  \relative c

  \repeat tremolo 8 {
   *\once * \override Beam.positions = #'(0 . 1)
    bf,16 b' }

[image: Inline image 1]
Without the \once command, the other tremolos are further slanted, which is
not desirable:

Thanks again!!
