Crossword Genius

A nymph in the chorus (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

echo

'a nymph' is the definition.
(figure of Greek myth)

'in the chorus' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'ECHO' is hidden within 'the chorus'.

(Other definitions for echo that I've seen before include "Reverberate - nymph spurned by Narcissus" , "Close imitation" , "Reminder" , "What evokes memories" , "Imitate -- a nymph" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
