Features: Gu Guaren has a deep love for traditional ethnic music and is deeply rooted in it. Therefore, his works, no matter how they extend or expand, the new sounds they create, are deeply connected to ethnic art. The new branches and leaves they extend, even if they are very complex and unique, grow like branches on a main trunk, without giving the impression of being patchy or forced together, which is very valuable. Today, the creation and development of ethnic instrumental music in our country have indeed advanced rapidly. In recent years, many large-scale ensemble pieces, concertos, and tone poems have appeared. Some have achieved great skill in innovative exploration of techniques, which is very encouraging. However, there are not many works that are relatively simple, profound, and can be enjoyed by a broad audience while also being playable and spread by themselves. Those who can soar can soar, and those who are good at traveling far can travel far. The earth is vast, and people's needs are diverse. It is from the many rivers that the great sea is formed.
