Crossword Genius

Trembling note? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

quaver

This clue is a double definition.

'trembling' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'note?' is the second definition.
(quaver is a kind of note)

(Other definitions for quaver that I've seen before include "Half-crotchet" , ".Speak in a trembling voice" , "(Of voice) tremble" , "Shake; a short note" , "Tremble - half a crotchet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
