Music at midnight for Cinderella? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ragtime

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'music' is the definition.
(ragtime is a kind of music)

'at midnight for cinderella?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'midnight' could be 'g' (the middle letter in 'night') and 'g' is located in the answer.
'at' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'rime' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ragtime that I've seen before include "Syncopated jazz style" , "Scott Joplin's genre" , "Jazz music for Maigret" , "Syncopated music form" , "Kind of music" .)
