Rehearsals in part for organs (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ears

'organs' is the definition.
(ear is a kind of organ)

'rehearsals in part' is the wordplay.
'in part' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'EARS' is hidden within 'rehearsals'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for ears that I've seen before include "''He who has ... to hear, let him hear'' (bible)" , "Shakespeare 'Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your . . . .'" , "Auditors" , "Organs for 7 down" , "Lugholes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
