Mô Teiki was a [[scholar-aristocracy of Ryukyu|Ryukyuan scholar-aristocrat]] who served as a prominent court musician.

First named a ''gakudôji'' (teenage musician & dancer) in [[1709]], he enjoyed a long career serving in various capacities at court.

In [[1749]] or [[1750]], he was assigned to train a group of ''gakudôji'' or pages (''koshô'') in performing ''uzagaku'' (Chinese-style chamber music), in preparation for a performance before the king, on the occasion of New Year's. The performance took place on 1750/1/11. After numerous days of day-long rehearsals, the actual performance is said to have gone perfectly, with no mistakes. Mô Teiki was granted a hanging scroll painting by the court, while other members of his ensemble received other gifts.
