Composer or storyteller with what to replace one? (5)
I believe the answer is:
lehar
'composer' is the definition.
(Austro-Hungarian composer Franz Lehar)
'storyteller with what to replace one?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'what' could be 'eh' (sound used to ask 'what?' or 'pardon?') and 'eh' is found within the answer.
'one?' could be 'a' (a thing is one thing) and 'a' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'or' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for lehar that I've seen before include "Franz -----, composer of The Merry Widow" , "Hungarian composer of operettas" , "Hungarian who composed" , "Musician" , "Viennese composer" .)
