Travel around islands in resort to find series of notes (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

glissando

'series of notes' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'travel around islands in resort' is the wordplay.
'travel' becomes 'go' (synonyms).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'in resort' indicates an anagram (letters get re-sorted).
'islands' is an anagram of 'lissand'.
'go' placed around 'lissand' is 'GLISSANDO'.

'to find' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for glissando that I've seen before include "Re-interpreting this musical direction" , "Sliding series of notes (mus.)" , "Slide between two notes" , "trombone slide, for example" , "Musical flourish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
