moved much of the jazz-specific discussion to jazz; as someone familiar with non-Western music, the assignment of minor pentatonic scale to the jazz idiom--{A, C, D, E, G}--rather than to that of the tuning of the koto--{A, B, C, E, F} belongs in idiom-specific pages rather than on the main page. I kept the introduction of the major pentatonic scale here, since in Western European classical music, the major pentatonic scale is commonly referred to as simply the "pentatonic scale."
