Quiet Music on the Night of 17th of Tammuz

Question

Is it permissible to listen to quiet music on the night of the 17th of Tammuz?

Answer

Shalom u'vracha 

The days of Bein HaMetzarim begin on the night of the 17th of Tammuz, and therefore, even at night, there is no permission to listen to music.

There is no difference between quiet music and other types of music.
