Music on the Fast of Gedaliah
Question
Is it permitted to listen to music on Tzom Gedaliah?
I’d appreciate a response regarding both lively, upbeat music and quiet, uplifting music.
Thank you.
Answer
Shalom uVracha,
Our teacher, HaRav Amrom Fried shlit”a, says that one should completely avoid listening to music on a fast day.
