Crossword Genius

Twist to music (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strain

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'twist' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'music' is the second definition.
(strain is a kind of music)

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for strain that I've seen before include "Pass through a filter" , "Twist" , "Screen" , "Melody; filter" , "Music" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
