Music at the Siyum during the Omer Days

Question

Shalom and blessings. Is it permissible to play music at the Siyum HaShas during the days of the Omer count?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

There is a dispute among the poskim on this matter. According to Halacha, it is permitted, but it is commendable to be stringent.

After Lag BaOmer, even those who generally refrain from listening to music may be lenient in this case.
