The apparatus processes the data sets for plural pieces of music. The music score data set is composed as including display event data that define notes and signs in musical notation and respective positions of the notes and signs for displaying a music score in a form of musical notation. The intermediate data set is created corresponding to the music score data set and includes a note data set which contains note event data corresponding to the notes and their respective positions, and a sign data set which contains sign event data corresponding to the signs and their respective positions. The performance data set is created corresponding to the intermediate data set, and includes performance event data that define notes to be played in terms of at least pitches and generation times of the respective notes to perform a musical piece as defined by the music score data set.
