Abstract
Ability of keeping the tempo is one of the important factors in playing music. In this paper, the authors carry out comparative experiments on the effects of off-line visual and verbal feedback instructions for informing the performance in trying to keep the tempo at 1 Hz by tapping the rhythm. The participants are divided into experienced and non-experienced groups. The results show that visual feedback may give too much information to experts of music and that experts can adjust the tempo by just using the verbal feedback.
