Composer left in furious state after review (5)
I believe the answer is:
elgar
'composer' is the definition.
(Edward Elgar)
'left in furious state after review' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'left' could be 'l' (common abbreviation) and 'l' is found in the answer.
'state' could be 'ga' (abbreviation for the US state) and 'ga' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'er' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for elgar that I've seen before include "Land of Hope and Glory composer" , "Glare strangely at the English composer" , "Glare critically at the British composer" , "Glare at great English composer" , "He scored" .)
