Slow movement from author after article (7)
I believe the answer is:
andante
'slow movement' is the definition.
(musical term)
'author after article' is the wordplay.
'author' becomes 'dante' (Dante is an example).
'after' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'article' becomes 'an' (indefinite article).
'dante' put after 'an' is 'ANDANTE'.
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for andante that I've seen before include "Fairly slow (mus.)" , "Fairly slow movement" , "tad slow for 9 [FLAUTIST] ?" , "Moderately slowly" , "moving unhurriedly" .)
