Accomplished musician bent Tom's ear (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

maestro

'accomplished musician' is the definition.
(a talented musician or conductor)

'bent tom's ear' is the wordplay.
'bent' is an anagram indicator.
'toms'+'ear'='tomsear'
'tomsear' is an anagram of 'MAESTRO'.

(Other definitions for maestro that I've seen before include "Are most in favour of a foreign master?" , "Good conductor" , "Eminent musician" , "great expert" , "Genius possibly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
