[Avodah] Hallel - sung?

[Ben Waxman via Avodah]

http://www.flipsnack.com/79987ECF8D6/522.html See page 5. Rav Meir Cohen 
attacks musical Hallel (and much of singing in shul), calling it a 
complete distortion of what the Levi'im did (the rav calls the Levis' 
song Avodah, not a method to raise spirits), a poor substitute for true 
spirituality which only makes things worse.

http://www.flipsnack.com/79987ECF8D6/523.html  See page 5. A response 
written by Rav Harel in which he defends the musical Hallels and singing 
in general, bringing several sources to show that this type of prayer is 
exactly what Chazal wanted.

Articles are in Hebrew.
