 The issue with the issur of music is usually construed within the context of dancing.
 
 Passively listening to serious music such as at a symphonic concert is AUI not a problem within the 3 weeks or Sefira 
 
 And listening to Requiem type music might even be desirable in the spirit of mekoonenos. See Mo'ed Kattan elu megalchin re: ein Onin ba'mo'ed implying that otehrwise onin and Mekonenim is done even with instruments...

I referred to the Worms minneg books and the Chavves Yoer's notes to

one of them, where no mention of a prohibition of music is to be found.
