Hallel with Musical Instruments
Question
Shalom u'vracha. There is a regular minyan in which Hallel is recited with musical instruments on Rosh Chodesh and on Chol HaMoed. The participants are God-fearing people, and the music is not performed as a musical show but as part of the prayer and in honor of Hashem. The group has a rabbi who leads it, and this is done with his approval. This prayer service is very important to me, and it is difficult for me to give it up. May I participate in such a minyan?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
It is permitted to participate, but only if the minyan is not held in a synagogue.
