Beat good with old musical piece (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tango

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

'beat good with old' is the wordplay.
'beat' becomes 'tan' (I've seen this before).
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'old' becomes 'o' (common abbreviation eg in OE for Old English).
'tan'+'g'+'o'='TANGO'

(Other definitions for tango that I've seen before include "Rhythmic movement" , "Last - in Paris (film)" , "Latin American dance (requiring two?)" , "Dance originating in Argentina" , "something seen in ballroom?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
