A method is designed for displaying a visual image of a music system that is constructed to play at least one performance part with a particular timbre and that is applied with an acoustic effect, an accompaniment style and the like. The method is carried out by the steps of analyzing data associated to the music system to discriminate the acoustic effect, the accompaniment style and the like applied to the music system and to discriminate the particular timbre allotted to the performance part of the music system, providing a picture of a scenery setting in matching with the discriminated acoustic effect, the accompaniment style and the like such that the picture of the scenery setting visualizes a situation and environment in which the music system should be played with the acoustic effect, the accompaniment style and the like, providing an icon in correspondence to the discriminated particular timbre such that the icon symbolizes playing of the performance part with the allotted timbre, and arranging the icon of the performance part in the picture of the scenery setting to thereby synthesize the visual image of the music system.
