A last tune composed in Oman, for example (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sultanate

'oman for example' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a last tune composed' is the wordplay.
'composed' indicates anagramming the letters.
'a'+'last'+'tune'='alasttune'
'alasttune' is an anagram of 'SULTANATE'.

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for sultanate that I've seen before include "Turkey was" , "Muslim dominion" , "Country" , "Brunei?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
