I'd be grateful for some help with my last two:
31d: second period at the MCG? Part with extra embellishment! (4) _R_O
35ac: A leaf rib in cereal grass (5) A_EN_
Also,12 ac looks like GROUPIE but I don't understand why - Fan in trouble mostly about nothing, in court
For some reason I found this week's Azed more obscure than usual!

12ac in trouble = grief: mostly - lose the f
about nothing = o
in court = up
grie around oup
35ac Avena - the oat genus of grasses (a + vena for leaf vein)
31d could this be brio? (second = b) but not sure what MCG is. Could it be Melbourne Cricket Ground?
31d Arvo.....Afternoon (Australian)
Arvo Part is a composer, Estonian I think, so there are 2 elements to the clue, as you'd expect

Thanks everyone - all is clear now!
It eventually struck me that the "extra embellishment" refers to the umlaut on the A of Arvo Part's surname
