Crossword Genius

Omitted giving flute to composer (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

left out

'omitted' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'giving flute to composer' is the wordplay.
'giving' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'composer' indicates anagramming the letters.
'flute' put next to 'to' is 'fluteto'.
'fluteto' anagrammed gives 'LEFT OUT'.

(Another definition for left out that I've seen is " Omitted".)
