A cross in Italy shows where a composer is buried (7)
I believe the answer is:
rossini
'where a composer is buried' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'a cross in italy shows' is the wordplay.
'shows' indicates a hidden word.
'ROSSINI' is hidden in the letters of 'cross in italy'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rossini that I've seen before include "Composer of The Thieving Magpie" , "Italian composer, 1792-1868" , "he produced harmony" , "Composer of 'The Barber of Seville' and 'William Tell'" , "Largo al factotum composer" .)
