Cryptic clues I am providing for harmonious gathering (8)

I believe the answer is:

musicale

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for harmonious gathering' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'cryptic clues i am' is the wordplay.
'cryptic' is an anagram indicator (a cryptic or obscure order of the letters).
'clues'+'i'+'am'='cluesiam'
'cluesiam' with letters rearranged gives 'MUSICALE'.

'providing' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for musicale that I've seen is " Party".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
