Place to put piece from composer and leading lady (7)
I believe the answer is:
holster
'place to put piece' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'composer and leading lady' is the wordplay.
'composer' becomes 'holst' (Gustav Holst).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'leading lady' becomes 'er' (Elizabeth Regina).
'holst'+'er'='HOLSTER'
'from' is the link.
(Other definitions for holster that I've seen before include "Leather case" , "Pistol case" , "case for weapons" , "Gun sheath" , "Revolver' cover" .)
