This is known as the diatonic scale.
The Mongol Empire under Genghis Khan started the conquest with small-scale raids into Western Xia in 1205 and 1207.

Started in Britain in the 1700s! No one knows for sure because it was so large scale that its hard to tell!
War on the Eastern front against Russia was marked by atrocities by both the "Vons" (Germans) and the "Ivans" ( Russians). Being captured meant you would probably be tortured to death and so this fact led to the utmost brutality . The Germans viewed the Russian as "Untermensch" (Less than [sub]human) so it made it easier to kill without mercy . The Russians , understandably , felt the need to reciprocate in kind .
half step
The Pentatonic scale which has been adopted by many western musicians was invented in China, which potentially sounds very Japanese
...are major and minor
In Western music, there are 12 major keys. That is the number of half steps in an octave, so each half step can be the start of a new major scale. If you look at a piano you can count them yourself.
Eastern music first began influencing Western music at the end of the Romantic Period. Actually, this influence is what caused Impressionism. Claude Debussy was at a great exhibition, and noticed one of their instruments. This instrument required several people to play, and used the pentatonic scale was used. Debussy enjoyed the music so much, he thought he would try to imitate the sound of the instrument using a western scale. Viola! The impressionistic period was born!
Arabic music can be generally defined a notable emphasis on melody and rhythm whereas western music emphasizes harmony and chords. Arabic music is based on double harmonic scale and is usually homophonic as opposed to polyphonic.
Classical and Arabic music.tone-row______________The scale used for tone rows is called the dodecaphonic or chromatic scale. "Do deca" is two and ten, meaning that the scale is made up of all twelve tones in the standard western musics. Arabic music makes use of notes that are outside of the dodecaphonic scale. Tone rows are commonly used in the composition of what is called atonal music. Actually, it is not atonal, but dodecatonal. Atonal music is harmonically atonal, since there is no relationship to a tonic, or key in the music.
It is called the supertonic (Latin super=above. Thus, "above the tonic"). This is the same for the major scale as well as the 3 minor scales of Western music (natural, melodic and harmonic).
Western musics in general, including classical music, usually use the diatonic scale system in equal temperament, with standard pitch set at A = 440 Hz.
The Chromatic Scale is all twelve semitones common to Western music. The Pentatonic scale is a group of five specific notes (per octave) that can be played within a particular key. For example, the "A Minor Pentatonic".
there are 12 notes in a western major scale..... i hope this helps :)
The style of music uses different instruments, such as the Sanxian (lute with 3 strings and no frets). Most Chinese music is quite calming. The scales are also different, in traditional western style music the scale has eight notes in eastern music it has only five notes causing it to sound quite different. cooldude
