- Japanese: 知念 三郎 (Chinen Saburou)
Chinen Saburô was the final living gakushi (master musician) of the Ryukyuan royal court. He was interviewed by Yamauchi Seihin in 1923, leaving the only written record of the actual melodies of Ryukyuan royal processional music (rujigaku).
Chinen also taught rujigaku to his eldest son Chinen Kenshô (1903-1979), who in turn taught Aharen Hon'yû.
