近代早期欧洲探险家、士兵、商人和传教士经常伴随着音乐商品前往亚洲。在此期间，大量的理论论文和乐谱（包括印刷版和手稿）在整个亚洲传播。本文研究了欧洲音乐作品在近代早期的中国、日本和菲律宾的传播和使用，然后确定了迄今为止已知在这些地区存在的乐谱和论文的标题。为了衡量欧洲传教士在将音乐移植到近代早期亚洲方面的相对成功，本文以 17 世纪欧洲音乐的三个重要来源的本地制作为案例进行研究：（1）来自亚洲的欧洲印刷音乐的最早例子，由耶稣会出版社于 1605 年在长崎制作； (2) 康熙皇帝于 1713 年委托撰写并于随后十年出版的一部关于欧洲音乐的中国专着； (3) 一部 116 页的手稿论文，由 17 世纪末马尼拉的一位身份不明的耶稣会士编写，综合了最新的欧洲音乐理论并对当地的音乐实践进行了评论。
Musical commodities frequently accompanied European explorers, soldiers, merchants and missionaries who travelled to Asia in the early modern period. During this time, numerous theoretical treatises and musical scores – both printed and manuscript – were disseminated throughout Asia. This article examines the dissemination and use of European musical works in early modern China, Japan and the Philippines, before identifying the titles of scores and treatises so far known to have been present in these territories. In order to measure the relative success of European missionaries in transplanting music to early modern Asia, it then takes as case studies the local production of three significant sources of European music during the seventeenth century: (1) the earliest example of printed European music from Asia, produced by the Jesuit press at Nagasaki in 1605; (2) a Chinese treatise on European music that was commissioned by the Kangxi Emperor in 1713 and printed the following decade; and (3) a 116-page manuscript treatise, compiled by an unidentified Jesuit in late seventeenth-century Manila, which synthesises the most current European music theory as well as commenting on local musical practices.
