Uncovered wrong note in musical piece (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rondo

'musical piece' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'uncovered wrong note' is the wordplay.
'uncovered' indicates the central letters.
'note' becomes 'do' (**).
The middle letters of 'wrong' are 'ron'.
'ron'+'do'='RONDO'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for rondo that I've seen before include "rota, maybe" , "Music form with repeating theme" , "Music with repeated refrains" , "A collection of notes" , "Musical piece with returning theme" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
