11 TURNS - RUT backwards (though this should have been a down clue), then "openings" of New Singers

FLUTIST works - FLUTT(er) around IS (though it isn't a word, is it - FLAUTIST is correct)

24 looks like an anagram of "THE QUEER TARTAN" + C (Caledonia's foremost), meaning "dance movements" - working on it!

loth to steal thunder from chris, he spotted the anagram first.

Thanks, trevor - couldn't solve it, though!

21, Flutist.

Chambers shows flutist as chiefly North American spelling of flautist

I think it sounds much better without the "a".
