This rhapsodic introduction of Ravel’s transported musician (14)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

harpsichordist

'musician' is the definition.
(harpsichordist is a kind of musician)

'this rhapsodic introduction of ravel's transported' is the wordplay.
'introduction of' says to take the initial letters.
'transported' indicates anagramming the letters.
The initial letter of 'ravels' is 'r'.
'this'+'rhapsodic'+'r'='thisrhapsodicr'
'thisrhapsodicr' with letters rearranged gives 'HARPSICHORDIST'.

(Other definitions for harpsichordist that I've seen before include "Keyboard player" , "Continuo player possibly" , "Scarlatti, say" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
