Members of the orchestra who take a bow (7)
I believe the answer is:
strings
'members of the orchestra' is the definition.
'strings' can be an answer for 'orchestra' (thesaurus). I'm unsure of the 'members of the' bit.
'take a bow' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'take' could be 'r' (abbreviation for 'recipe', Latin for 'take') and 'r' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'stings' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'who' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for strings that I've seen before include "Lengths of wire etc on a musical instrument" , "Orchestral section" , "Undesirable conditions" , "Bowed instruments in the orchestra" , "Cords" .)
