Melodious harp one played (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

orphean

'melodious' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'harp one played' is the wordplay.
'played' indicates anagramming the letters (letters playing around).
'harp'+'one'='harpone'
'harpone' is an anagram of 'ORPHEAN'.

(Other definitions for orphean that I've seen before include "Enchanting" , "Melodious" , "Pertaining to mythical lyre player" , "of legendary musician" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
