An automatic rhythm performing apparatus comprises a rhythm pattern generator (A); a rhythm tone generator; a rhythm control switch (B); and a control circuitry (C) connected to the rhythm pattern generator, the rhythm tone generator and the rhythm control switch. The rhythm pattern generator generates repetitively a repetition period signal defining a repetition period, a first (normal) rhythm pattern signal with the period, and a second (fill-in) rhythm pattern signal with the period. The rhythm tone generator generates rhythm tone signals in response to said first and second rhythm pattern signals. The control means controls the generation of the rhythm tone signals to be responsive to which of the first and second rhythm pattern signals according to timings of the actuation of the rhythm control switch. Thus the apparatus carries out a variety of rhythm control according to the timings of the actuation of the rhythm control switch.
