Hello all,
Is anyone aware of the halachah concerning concerts in Reform temples?
Specifically, I was an organist in a previous life, and am interested in
dusting off my chops and playing again. There are several Reform (and
Conservative, I believe) places in NYC with concert organs, and I would
like to avail myself if possible. I've been having trouble reaching my
rav, so I'd like to see if anyone has experience with this question here.
Off the top of my head I can't figure any reason why not, but this isn't
exactly the type of halachos I typically hear being discussed in Passaic
or Bnei Brak or the other places I've been. I am assuming that one is
not allowed to enter a church for this purpose, and anyway, having grown
up Episcopalian myself, I think I would find that awkward, to say the least.
Many thanks,
