Eminent composer? (6,2,4)
I believe the answer is:
person of note
'eminent composer?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'eminent composer?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'eminent' could be 'ofnote' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'ofnote' is found in the answer.
'composer?' could be 'person' (composer is a kind of person) and 'person' is present in the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for person of note that I've seen is " Definitely not one of 1 Ac!".)
