From Satie a rare musical gift (3)

I believe the answer is:

ear

'musical gift' is the definition.
(a talented musician has 'the ear')

'from satie a rare' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'EAR' can be found hidden inside 'satie a rare'.

(Other definitions for ear that I've seen before include "Organ involved with balance" , "Seed-bearing part of wheat" , "Sense organ" , "See 8" , "Corn seed-holder" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
