Intricate pieces from flugelhorn at Eisteddfod (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ornate

'intricate' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'pieces from flugelhorn at eisteddfod' is the wordplay.
'pieces' indicates a hidden word (I've seen 'piece of' mean this).
'ORNATE' is hidden within 'from flugelhorn at eisteddfod'.

(Other definitions for ornate that I've seen before include "Richly adorned and elaborate" , "Flash" , "Florid" , "Richly decorated, perhaps too much so" , "Detailed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
