I believe the answer is:

earwigged

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'listened in on' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'arrangement of grieg sonata at last we'd' is the wordplay.
'arrangement of' indicates an anagram.
'at last' suggests the final letters.
The last letter of 'sonata' is 'a'.
'grieg'+'a'+'wed'='griegawed'
'griegawed' is an anagram of 'EARWIGGED'.

Can you help me to learn more?
