Composer after time to make trip (6)
I believe the answer is:
travel
'trip' is the definition.
(I know that travel is a more specific form of the action the trip)
'composer after time' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'composer' could be 'ravel' (Maurice Ravel, 1875-1937) and 'ravel' is found within the answer.
'time' could be 't' (abbreviation) and 't' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'to make' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for travel that I've seen before include "Make a journey" , "Go from place to place" , "Locomotion" , "Move from one place to another" , "treatment for a narrow mind?" .)
