A piezoelectric material for a combustion pressure sensor, a method for producing the piezoelectric material, and a combustion pressure sensor using the piezoelectric material are provided. The piezoelectric material of the present invention includes a single crystal containing Ca, Ta, an element M (M is Al or Ga), Si, and O, the single crystal has the same crystal structure as the crystal structure of langasite represented by La3Ga5SiO14, and at least the content of the element M is insufficient for the stoichiometric composition represented by Ca3TaM3Si2O14. Preferably, in a case where the element M is Ga, each content of the Ca and the Si is excessive for the stoichiometric composition, and in a case where the element M is Al, the content of the Ca is excessive for the stoichiometric composition, and the content of the Ta is insufficient for the stoichiometric composition.
