Rin Keshô was a Ryukyuan scholar-official who trained musicians for the 1790 Ryukyuan embassy to Edo.
Rin studied in China for four years, beginning at the age of 27. In 1789, when he was 38, he was appointed alongside Ryô Shô to train musicians who would travel to Edo the following year. He led daily lessons and rehearsals at Ankokuzen-ji for a span of some months, prior to the mission's departure on 1790/6/6.
