Indian city right to the fore in Indian music (4)
I believe the answer is:
raga
'indian music' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'indian city right to the fore' is the wordplay.
'indian city' becomes 'aga' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'right' becomes 'r' (common abbreviation).
'to the fore' says to put letters next to each other.
'aga' put after 'r' is 'RAGA'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for raga that I've seen before include "Classical Indian piece" , "An Indian note-pattern" , "Indian melody" , "classical Indian composition" , "Basis of improvisation in Indian music" .)
