AB  - This paper outlines the basic terminology and perspective of the European Science Foundation project Musical Life in Europe 1600-1900.It points out that:1. Changes in European musical life are directly dependent upon the migrations of musicians.2. Musical practice is above all the practice of musical institutions.3. The activities of these institutions are penetrated by cultural representation.The terms circulation, institution and representation are explained in the text. Mutual relations exist between these three terms.
