ABSTRACT
The purpose of this article is to analyze the dynamics of trajectories of Japanese classical
musicians residing in Europe — in Poland and France — who, by their professional
qualifications, fall into a category of highly skilled professionals, yet at the same time
experience their situation of migration similarly to economic migrants, or middling
migration (Scott, 2006; Boyle, 2006). Among many factors shaping the European careers
of Japanese migrant musicians, I will pay particular attention to the following combination
of three elements: (1) structural and legal regulations that shape artistic labor market
in general and the situation of migrant artists in particular, (2) the role of social and
(3) cultural capital. The intersectional analysis of the professional situation of migrantartists attempts to demonstrate how these musicians by their profession on the one
hand and ethnic origins on the other are trapped into multiplied insecurity. This study rests on the material collected upon qualitative methods of individual, in-depth, semistructured interviews conducted among 50 Japanese classical musicians in their mother
tongue, as well as quantitative data (statistics of musical competitions, orchestras, music
academies, etc.).
