Crossword Genius

Boy's name for a piano piece (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ian

'boy's name' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'for a piano piece' is the wordplay.
'piece' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'IAN' is hidden in the letters of 'for piano'.

(Other definitions for ian that I've seen before include "... Fleming, author of the Bond books" , "Male" , "The familar Dr Paisley" , "Botham or Chappell?" , "Albert Beale's first name in EastEnders" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
