    Fun, thank you! FYI on 5A, the CARAT is a unit of mass (1/5 of a gram); on the other hand, KARAT is a unit of purity for gold.

      Re 5A: a "carat" is a unit of weight, not purity. (Easy to confuse it with "karat", which is a measure of purity used for gold.)

          Fun. I think this is what they call "smooth".

                Having just played The Sound Of Music (arr. Bennett) in my concert band group, as soon as I saw the puzzle title I knew I had to do it, and zeroed in on the appropriate clue immediately.
