Composer and bishop with old sculptor (7)
I believe the answer is:
borodin
'composer' is the definition.
(Alexander Borodin was a Russian composer)
'bishop with old sculptor' is the wordplay.
'bishop' becomes 'B' (chess abbreviation).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'old' becomes 'o' (common abbreviation eg in OE for Old English).
'sculptor' becomes 'rodin' (Auguste Rodin was a French sculptor).
'b'+'o'+'rodin'='BORODIN'
'and' is the link.
(Other definitions for borodin that I've seen before include "Noteworthy chap" , "Russian composer, Aleksandr Porfirevich (1834-87)" , "Russian composer (Prince Igor)" , "Russian composer, d. 1887" , "Prince Igor composer, d. 1887" .)
