prince

'title given' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how one could define the other.

'pincer movement' is the wordplay.
'movement' is an anagram indicator (letters move around).
'pincer' anagrammed gives 'PRINCE'.

'to a' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for prince that I've seen before include "Monarch's son" , "Royal personage" , "Sovereign's son" , "Male heir to a throne" , "Son of a sovereign" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
