Low place haunted by orchestral musicians? (3)
I believe the answer is:
pit
'low place' is the definition.
'pit' can be an answer for 'place' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'low' bit.
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pit that I've seen before include "Big deep hole in the ground" , "Large hole; fruit stone" , "Large hole; mine" , "Coal mine" , "A hole as for coal" .)
