Musical instruction to play in a restless or excited manner (7)

I believe the answer is:

agitato

(Other definitions for agitato that I've seen before include "Musical indication; a go at it (anagram)" , "Disturbed playing" , "Restless, wild (musical term)" , "Restless, wild (mus.)" , "stirred up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
