The Guan is normally divided into the Northern Guan and Southern Guan, which vary in both structure and tone colour. The Northern Guan is made of wood while the Southern Guan is made of bamboo. The Guan has a very peculiar tone and is often used to add special colours to ensemble and orchestral music.
