Don't you want "\repeat tremolo 2" instead of 4? Each tremolo pair is supposed
to be an 8th note in duration: 1/8 = 2 * (1/32 + 1/32).
In your "doesn't work" versionm, if you omit the manual beams, it
correctly typesets three quarter notes worth.
With "tremolo 2" it works with the manual beams, but issues warnings
"programming error: Stem already has beam". I don't know whose
"programming" that refers to. Does it mean Lilypond has detected a bug
in itself?
\relative c''' {
\repeat tremolo 2 { e32[ c! }
\repeat tremolo 2 { es c }
\repeat tremolo 2 { d b] }
}
