Recess for violinist? (5)
I believe the answer is:
bower
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'recess' is the first definition.
(I have seen 'Leafy recess ' mean 'bower' so perhaps 'recess' could also mean 'bower')
'for violinist?' is the second definition.
(a violinist plays a violin with a bow)
(Other definitions for bower that I've seen before include "Shaded place under trees" , "Arbour" , "lady's private room?" , "Leafy recess" , "sanctuary" .)
