From 1975 to 2002, Klöcker taught clarinet and chamber wind music at the Hochschule für Musik Freiburg.[2][3] He was the leader of Consortium Classicum with which he also rediscovered the repertoire for Harmonie, a form of historical small wind ensemble. With them in particular he has also amassed an impressive discography.[4]
