After returning to Europe, she studied with Severino Gazzelloni at the Academia Chigiana (Italy). She followed special courses for Baroque Music with Jos van Immerseel, Bart Kuyken and Ton Koopman. Pameijer gave her debut recital in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw and was a prize winner of the Frank Martin competition. Pameijer has performed as soloist with various orchestras and ensembles. She has worked with conductors David Porcelijn, Arthuro Tamayo, Richard Dufallo, Ton Koopman, Oliver Knussen, Jaap van Zweden, Kenneth Montgomery, Ingo Metzmacher, Peter Eötvös, Philippe Entremont and Alexander Vedernikov. She has also given performances of chamber music written by composers such as Bach, Telemann, Mozart, Beethoven, Debussy, Steven Mackey and Isang Yun. Several compositions have been written especially for Pameijer, including flute concertos by Jeff Hamburg (US), Peter Schat (NL), Joep Straesser (NL), Vanessa Lann (US), Peter van Onna (NL), Joost Kleppe (NL), Paul Termos (NL) and Guus Janssen (NL). Dutch publishing house Donemus published two books with solo flute repertoire all composed for Pameijer. Presently, Pameijer is the artistic director of the Leo Smit Foundation, an organisation which has a goal of rediscovering suppressed and forgotten composers in the Netherlands.
