Ring coach in Austria to procure musical instrument (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ocarina

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

'musical instrument' is the definition.
(ocarina is a type of wind instrument)

'ring coach in austria' is the wordplay.
'ring' becomes 'O' (letter resembling a ring).
'coach' becomes 'car' (as in a train coach or car).
'austria' becomes 'a'.
'o'+'car'+'in'+'a'='OCARINA'

'to procure' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ocarina that I've seen before include "dated instrument" , "Old wind instrument" , "Flute-toned musical toy" , "music-maker" , "Small egg-shaped wind instrument with holes for the fingers" .)
