Trademarks
Piet Klocke's trademark role is Professor Schmitt-Hindemith in his show "Musikstilarten im auslaufenden Jahrtausend", where he is accompanied by saxophonist Simone Sonnenschein as Fräulein Angelika Kleinknecht. As Professor Schmitt-Hindemith, Klocke dresses eccentrically, and uses his scrubby red hair and lean figure to create an image of a helplessly nervous person, speaking in a very distracted way and leaving most of his sentences unfinished. He also often employs the Schmitt-Hindemith character in radio plays.
