A holm oak, strangely, can be found in the musical state (8)

I believe the answer is:

oklahoma

(Other definitions for oklahoma that I've seen before include "US State and musical drama" , "State between Kansas and Texas" , "seen by many on stage" , "Part of US" , "US state - Rodgers and Hammerstein musical" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
