This clue might be a double definition.

'performer of an early edition' is the first definition.
'player' can be an answer for 'performer' (player is a kind of performer). I am unsure of the 'of an early edition' bit.

'piano' is the second definition.
(player piano is a kind of piano)

'for the' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for player that I've seen before include "Person who takes part in a game" , "Competitor; musician" , "Sports team member" , "Participant in competitive game" , "South African golfer, Gary" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
