Question
My wife is teaching our children to play the guitar. Is there an issue with playing music during the Omer counting days (it is not a financial loss) since at the early stage of learning, it is not yet joyous melodies but merely some sounds?
Answer
Hello
It is permitted to learn to play music during the Omer days, only playing for enjoyment is prohibited.
