Composer's good fortune (5)

I believe the answer is:

gluck

'composer's' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'good fortune' is the wordplay.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'fortune' becomes 'luck' (synonyms).
'g'+'luck'='GLUCK'

(Other definitions for gluck that I've seen before include "German composer of operas" , "Eighteenth century German composer (Orpheus and Eurydice)" , "Composer of Orfeo ed Eurydice" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
