"[2] Contemporary oboists in this lineage include Han de Vries, Koen van Slogteren (nl), Peter Bree, Bart Schneemann, and the current principal oboe in Stotijn's orchestra, Pauline Oostenrijk (nl).

In 1907, while studying with Dirk van Emmerik, Stotijn played second oboe with the Residentie Orchestra in The Hague, where his teacher was principal oboist.

In 1919, Stotijn succeeded Dirk van Emmerik as solo oboist with the Hague Residentie Orchestra and as oboe instructor at the conservatory, positions he held until his retirement in 1956.

In 1935, Stotijn formed the Feltkamp-Stotijn-Ketting Trio with flutist Johan Feltkamp and pianist/composer Piet Ketting.

Stotijn also performed with a Baroque music ensemble Collegium Musicum Artis Antiqua.
