What's intrinsic to dramatic fiddle? (5)

I believe the answer is:

amati

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fiddle?' is the definition.
(violin created by the Amati family)

'what's intrinsic to dramatic' is the wordplay.
'AMATI' is hidden in amongst the letters.
However, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for amati that I've seen before include "Famous violin-maker" , "fiddler" , "instrument-maker" , "Old violin" , "Italian family of violin-makers" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
