ABSTRACT:
A CPU (10) reads coordinate data within an emotional expression data base (25) in accordance with lyrics data within a RAM. The CPU (10) also sequentially reads performance data and generates a parameter (VP) corresponding to the volume of a piece of music and a parameter (CP) corresponding to the chord of the piece of music. The parameter (VP) adjusts the position on an emotional plane in a Y-axis direction, and the parameter (CP) adjusts the position on the emotional plane in an X-axis direction. The CPU (10) corrects the coordinates outputted from the emotional expression data base (25) based on the parameter (VP) and the parameter (CP). Therefore, the final coordinates on the emotional plane are those obtained by correcting the coordinates corresponding to the lyrics data in accordance with the volume and chord.
