Sang at home - noted composition (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

intoned

'sang' is the definition.
(intoning is a kind of singing)

'home noted composition' is the wordplay.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'composition' is an anagram indicator.
'noted' anagrammed gives 'toned'.
'in'+'toned'='INTONED'

'at' is the link.

(Other definitions for intoned that I've seen before include "Said flatly" , "sounded like the vicar?" , "Chanted" , "Started a psalm, perhaps" , "Sang in church" .)
