Not that favourite trumpet piece? How odd! (3)
I believe the answer is:
rum
'odd' is the definition.
(rum can mean strange or dubious)
'not that favourite trumpet piece?' is the wordplay.
'RUM' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I am not sure how the hidden word is indicated.
'how' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rum that I've seen before include "Odd sort of spirit used in grog" , "Droll" , "Eerie" , "Odd like drink distilled from molasses" , "Unusual" .)
