Berlin: I was providing the Mekoros I was asked for earlier. The contemporary Poskim all say that this Minhag against dancing includes listening to recorded music (R’ Moshe, TZ”E, Shevet Haleivi, and others, and the common Minhag seems to be like that). Rav Moshe and the TZ”E both do say that even singing is Assur during this time. The Minhag, at least from as far as I’ve seen (and I asked around a lot after I saw those T’shuvos), is to not hold like that, possibly because of the reason I mentioned above.
