A weird tale following Victor's dance (6)

I believe the answer is:

valeta

'dance' is the definition.
(type of dance)

'a weird tale following victor's' is the wordplay.
'weird' indicates an anagram.
'following' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'victor' becomes 'V' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'tale' with letters rearranged gives 'leta'.
'a'+'leta'='aleta'
'aleta' after 'v' is 'VALETA'.

(Another definition for valeta that I've seen is " Dance in waltz time".)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
