[edit] Japanese pronunciation of Chinese term?

If you're going to add that togaku is the Japanese pronunciation of a Chinese term, can you please add the kanji/hanzi? Badagnani 08:42, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

I looked it up. Tōgaku (唐樂) comes from Tangyue (唐樂). I think it's more likely that Japanese came up with the term "Tang Dynasty music" (called "Dangak" in Korean) than that Chinese themselves actually called their own music "Tang Dynasty music." Comments? Badagnani 08:46, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
