Dutch composer, essayist and classicist. Also known as Alphons Diepenbrock. He started composing music in his teens, which included songs and choral works as well as the "Academische feestmarsch for winds". His final years saw Diepenbrock turn his musical activities back toward classical literature, including incidental music for Aristophanes' "The Birds" (1917) and Sophocles' "Elektra" (1920), as well as music for Goethe's "Faust" (1918).
