Something juicy for the quiet listener (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pear

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

'something juicy for' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'quiet listener' is the wordplay.
'quiet' becomes 'p' (music symbol for 'piano', ie soft or quiet).
'listener' becomes 'ear' (body part which hears or listens).
'p'+'ear'='PEAR'

'the' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pear that I've seen before include "Source of cider" , "Cider-making fruit" , "One fruit sounds like two" , "Pomaceous fruit" , "Brilliant" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
