Sad action at the end of a concert that's done by violinist? (7)
I believe the answer is:
downbow
'that's done by violinist?' is the definition.
(type of stroke when playing violin)
'sad action at the end of a concert' is the wordplay.
'sad' becomes 'down' (I've seen this before).
'action at the end of a concert' becomes 'bow' (performers might take a bow after a concert).
'down'+'bow'='DOWNBOW'
(Another definition for downbow that I've seen is " Violin stroke".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
