Music has different effects. A ‘malchusdik’ march evokes one type of feeling, a ‘dvaikusdik’ nigun, another. This is regardless of whether they may resemble music from other cultures. Unfortunately, most of today’s “Jewish” music has its origins in the jungle, the effect being to make people feel and act like …animals!
And as the ‘baal simcha’ or ‘baalas simcha’ you have the right to tell the musician(s) you employ if you don’t want jungle music, and if you don’t want to be responsible for contributing to the hearing loss of your guests.
