Dutch composer, music critic and music teacher, considered to be among the most important Dutch composers of the first half of the 20th century. In 1912, Pijper entered the Utrecht Academy of Music, where he was taught composition by Johan Wagenaar, passing examinations in theoretical subjects in 1915. Apart from his brief study with Wagenaar he was entirely self-taught as a composer. The octatonic scale has been called the "Pijper scale" in Dutch. As a teacher, Pijper had a great influence on modern Dutch music, teaching many prominent Dutch composers of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. Pijper died on 18 March 1947 in Utrecht.
