I believe the answer is:

sharps

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

'notes' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'clever point made' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'point' could be 's' (South) and 's' is found within the answer.
The remaining letters 'harps' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for sharps that I've seen is " Musical notes, not flats".)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
