	Guanzi or Bili
		The Chinese guanzi or bili is a cylindrical double reed, related to the western and central Asian duduk, duduki, and bili of Eastern Europe, Persia, Armenia, and Georgia.
		The guanzi is still played in a number of musical styles and especially those that contain remnants of Tang court music such as some Buddhist and Taoist music, and in the wind and percussion groups of Xi'an, the modern city built on the site of the ancient Chinese court of Chang'an.
		The wooden guanzi is usually made from a type of rosewood with 7 finger holes and one to two thumb-holes.

		Robinet explains that allusions to the “spirit of the valley,” and the “obscure female” in the Dao De Jing are thought to be references to longevity practices.

	In Search of Dragons, by Dr. Stephen L. Field, Ph.D.
		So the image in the Guanzi is of living water pulsing underground, emerging as springs, and coursing in rivers.
		In this passage, it is clear that qi is separate from water, a departure from the view of the Guanzi author.
		Here the physiological qi of Zhuangzi and the geophysical qi of Guanzi and Prince Jin merge, as the corpse is interred underground to receive the influence of the "blood and qi" of the body of the earth.

		One of the pieces was the first track: Duduk of the North (5:35).
		This is simply amazing I am interested to investigate and find out whether is there any links between the duduk and guanzi, both of which are very similar instruments from two vastly different ethnic groups.

	Daoist Philosophy [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		In addition to the controversial connection to the Songs of Chu, the Guanzi (350-250 BCE) is a text older than both the Daodejing and probably all of the Zhuangzi, except the "inner chapters" (see below).
		Indeed, there is a strong meditative trend in the Daoism of late imperial China known as the "inner alchemy" tradition and the views of the Neiye seem to be in the background of this movement.
		Two other chapters of the Guanzi are called Xin shu (Heart-mind book).

		The GuanZi is a giant jumble of texts and charts from many centuries apart that cover a huge variety of subjects.
		Calling the Guanzi a legalist work is more a force of habit than a logical decision, and from a modern perspective it is no longer attributed to Guan Zhong (although you are 100% correct in saying that, originally, it was attributed to him).
