Playing Songs in the House of Mourning

Question

My mother is within the year of mourning for her mother, and we want to play songs at home for ourselves, not for her. Is it allowed or forbidden, and how can it be allowed?

Answer

Hello 

It is permitted to play music for your needs, and she does not need to leave the house.
