It is pronounced like "schwinn" with the sound of the middle "wi" rising in pitch. It means "penetrating wind", alsoname of hexagrams in I Ching as well. It is a vessel flute or a transverse ocarina. The first ones used to imitate animal noises and hunters communicated with each other using them in very ancient times. It was a Taoist instrument used in ceremonial music but had nearly died out and then the cultural revolution all but finished it off. Now making a remarkable comeback.
