Abstract

The present invention provides a musical piece analysis device comprising a processor that executes: a process for synchronously adding audio waveforms, of a plurality of sections including temporary beat positions set in accordance with a temporary BPM in a BPM fixed section of a musical piece, by aligning the temporary beat positions; a process for updating the temporary BPM and re-executing the synchronous addition; and a process for specifying, as the BPM of the BPM fixed section, the temporary BPM at which the peak level of the waveform obtained by the synchronous addition is at a maximum.
