'nasty feeling' is the definition.
'fear' can be an answer for 'feeling' (fear is a kind of feeling). I am not sure about the 'nasty' bit.

'a loudly played organ?' is the wordplay.
'a loudly' becomes 'f' (short for forte - 'loud' in music).
'played organ?' becomes 'ear' (ear is a kind of organ. I am not sure about the 'played' bit.).
'f'+'ear'='FEAR'

'about' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
