An electronic musical instrument includes operation elements, sound producer, and processor. The processor starts progressing a musical piece, based on musical-piece data. In response to a current operation of an operation element among the operation elements being performed by a user while the musical piece is in progress, the processor determines whether the current operation is performed after a lapse of a predetermined time from an operation immediately before the current operation. In response to determining that the current operation is performed before the lapse of the predetermined time, the processor causes the sound producer to sound a chord-constituting note at a timing of the current operation in the musical piece. In response to determining that the current operation is performed after the lapse of the predetermined time, the processor causes the sound producer to sound a melody note at the timing of the current operation in the musical piece.
