Get to hear a group of singers (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

acquire

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

'get' is the definition.
(I know that get can be written as acquire)

'to hear a group of singers' is the wordplay.
'to' becomes 'ac' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'hear' shows a homophone (sound like).
'a group of singers' becomes 'choir' (a choir is a singing group).
'choir' sounds like 'quire'.
'ac'+'quire'='ACQUIRE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for acquire that I've seen before include "Buy" , "Bag" , "Come into possession of" , "Come to possess" , "Procure" .)
