I play music pretty seriously and have pretty high standards as to what music I listen to. Can anyone recommend some very good quality contemporary Jewish music?

doesn’t meet your standards (lashon hara) and so would be a violation of lifnei iver?(What standards are these, anyway? Quality is subjective, and
doesn’t always match the level of technical sophistication.)May 8, 2018 8:25 pm at 8:25 pm #1517956ChaverParticipantWhere do you like to hear the quality, arrangements, singing, or real instruments? What makes the music “high quality” to you?

For example, if I devote the next ten minutes to composing a song and playing it on some rubber bands stretched onto an empty tissue box, that would be low quality.

Like wine.
People who don’t know anything about wine will say that it’s all a matter of taste. When you go to the experts, they will tend to agree much more with each other as to what constitutes quality.
I find that people who are not musicians tend to have a much wider view as to what constitutes as good music. And they will inevitably follow up with “If I like it then it’s good”, which is not true. It just means that that kind of music is the highest quality that they can appreciate, which is much different than what they said.

He takes Hasidic nigunim (often from Chabad) and produces them in the style of a very high-quality jazz recording. Most of the songs are instrumental and are truly works of art. His most recent album is based on the nigunim of Rabbi Yitzchak Ginsburgh and is totally worth listening to. If you search for him on YouTube or Spotify you will find him.
