A musical note generation device includes at least one processor that performs a process of generating attenuated sound waveform data by respectively reducing, among frequency components included in first sound waveform data corresponding to pitch information associated with a specified key, amplitudes of respective frequency components of a fundamental tone and harmonics of the fundamental tone corresponding to a pitch indicated by the pitch information; a process that convolves the generated attenuated sound waveform data generated with second sound waveform data corresponding to at least one of a high sound range side impulse response and a low sound range side impulse response, so as to generate third sound waveform data; and a process of outputting piano sound waveform data generated on the basis of the third sound waveform data generated by the convolution process.
