chop

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

'sack' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both acts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'composer drops at home' is the wordplay.
'composer' becomes 'chopin' (Chopin is an example).
'drops' suggests deleting specific letters.
'at home' becomes 'in' ('in' can be similar in meaning to 'at home').
'chopin' with 'in' removed is 'CHOP'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for chop that I've seen before include "Small cut of meat" , "Cut - a piece of meat" , "Cutting blow" , "Abolish, cut of meat" , "Cutlet" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
