clara

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'schumann who scored' is the definition.
'clara' can be an answer for 'schumann' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the rest of the definition.

'with charlie croft?' is the wordplay.
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'charlie' becomes 'C' (phonetic alphabet).
'croft?' becomes 'lara' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'c'+'lara' is 'CLARA'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for clara that I've seen before include "Butt" , "Home town of the Taoiseach" , "- - Bow, silent film star" , "Woman" , "Schumann" .)
