The invention relates to a method for recognizing a melody from a set of stored melodies. In the method, an audio sample representing the melody to be recognized is produced to form a first search criterion. In the method, an audio sample is produced of at least one word related to the melody to be recognized to form a second search criterion, wherein in the recognition, a first search set is formed of the stored melodies on the basis of one said search criterion. Another said search criterion is used for recognizing the melody from said first search set.
