A performance processing apparatus is operable by user with aide of
control and sound devices for providing sample music data to data
management apparatus. A storage section stores original music data
representing a music piece composed of tones. An acquisition section
acquires input information from control device which has a detector for
detecting either physical action or physiological state of user and
operated by user to provide input information indicating detection result
by detector. A processing section controls a performance parameter
according to input information for enabling sound device to generate
tones of the music piece represented by original music data and altered
by user. A transmitting section transmits sample music data representing
music piece composed of tones controlled by the performance parameter to
the data management apparatus which has a storage device for storing
sample music data for use as a material of evaluating mental or physical
function of user.
