Roar from orchestra near to one's heart (5)

Ross

chest

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

'near to one's heart' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'roar from orchestra' is the wordplay.
'from' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'orchestra' with 'roar' removed is 'CHEST'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chest that I've seen before include "It's enclosed by the ribs" , "Upper trunk" , "Bust" , "Box - breast" , "Piece of furniture" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
