'a quick grasp' is the definition.
'snatch' can be an answer for 'grasp' (I've seen this before). I'm unsure of the 'a quick' bit.

'music' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'music' could be 'c' and 'c' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'snath' 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).

'of' is the link.
