Second note put in score is wrong (10)
I believe the answer is:
supertonic
'second note' is the definition.
(in music, second note after the tonic)
'put in score is wrong' is the wordplay.
'is wrong' is an anagram indicator.
'put'+'in'+'score'='putinscore'
'putinscore' is an anagram of 'SUPERTONIC'.
(Another definition for supertonic that I've seen is " second note".)
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
