*''Japanese'': [[知念]] 三郎 ''(Chinen Saburou)''

Chinen Saburô was the final living ''gakushi'' (master musician) of the [[Ryukyu Kingdom|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.
