A girl to make music with? (5)
I believe the answer is:
viola
'a girl' is the definition.
'music with?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'music' could be 'a' and 'a' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'viol' 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).
'to make' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for viola that I've seen before include "Plant; instrument" , "Bloomer" , "Alto of the violin family" , "Shakespearean role" , "Stringed instrument tuned lower than a violin" .)
