Clichéd Chinese Pentascale?
Oftentimes when a movie is expressing Asian culture, the first five notes of a pentatonic scale (usually in CM) plays in the background, sometimes preceded by a gong. I am wondering why this is and as to where/when/how the scale made its first appearance as an 'Asian' thing?
