Question

Throughout the year I customarily hum melodies of the Yamim Nora'im (the High Holy Days), because it arouses me to repentance and fear of Heaven. Some people tell me that it is forbidden to do this during the year, because it arouses the attribute of judgment. Is there such a prohibition, and is there any source for it in Halachah or in the teachings of Chazal?

Answer

Shalom u-vracha 

There is no problem in doing so.
