Passage from composer after Tzigane's opening (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

travel

'passage' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'composer after tzigane's opening' is the wordplay.
'composer' becomes 'ravel' (I've seen this before).
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'opening' says to take the initial letters.
The first letter of 'tzigane' is 't'.
'ravel' after 't' is 'TRAVEL'.

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for travel that I've seen before include "Move from one place to another" , "Make a journey" , "Go from place to place" , "Tourism" , "It is said to broaden the mind" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
