Embrace strange new musical form (6)
I believe the answer is:
enwrap
'embrace' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'strange new musical form' is the wordplay.
'strange' indicates anagramming the letters.
'musical form' becomes 'rap' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'new' anagrammed gives 'enw'.
'enw'+'rap'='ENWRAP'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for enwrap that I've seen before include "Envelop, enfold" , "Absorb" , "Cover (with paper, etc)" , "put in package" , "Cover completely" .)
