Strange piano American noise (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rumpus

'noise' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'strange piano american' is the wordplay.
'strange' becomes 'rum' (synonyms).
'piano' becomes 'p' (musical abbreviation).
'american' becomes 'us' (abbreviation for United States).
'rum'+'p'+'us'='RUMPUS'

(Other definitions for rumpus that I've seen before include "Making a fuss" , "Row" , "Noisy brawl" , "'Commotion, din (6)'" , "Noisy disturbance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
