To provide an electronic metronome making a display similar to the movement of a mechanical metronome or a parabolic movement, an electronic metronome of the present invention includes a timing setting portion for setting a timing for emitting a sound, a control portion that outputs pieces of tempo indication data and a tempo sound signal, which are based on a piece of data on a set tempo, respectively at timings based on a piece of sound emission timing information set by the timing setting portion, a display portion that is constructed of a plurality of light emitting elements or liquid crystal display segments and visually displays a tempo by sequentially displaying the pieces of tempo indication data outputted from the control portion, and a sound emitting portion that emits a sound through amplification of the tempo sound signal outputted from the control portion.
