Joseph Jean Louis Marie Opdenoordt (16-09-1892 - 04-04-1966) Dutch chess composer

Joseph Jean Louis Marie Opdenoordt was a Good Companion composer. Among the 500 chess problems he composed, 60 were selected for the 3rd volume of Dr.Niemeijer's series "Probleemcomponisten" in 1943.

Despite the success of the New German school, Opdenoordt was more inclined towards the Bohemian school of composition and published an article in De Maasbode in 1926 in which he proposed new guidelines for the Bohemian school.
