Clamp light (with dimmer) buzzing. Normal?

I recently bought a Fluker's 8.5" light fixture with the dimmer. I notice the bulb makes a slight 'buzzing' sound. The lower I dim it, the louder it gets. Is this normal for the dimming fixtures?
 
Dimmers are notorious for buzzing. Some bulbs and fixtures handle being on a dimmer switch better than others. It's very hard on the bulb since it's cycling a rapid on/off.
