Coming Soon: New Products and Features
The Kosher Music Organization strives to raise the level of kedusha in Klal Yisrael through the power of music - the כח הנגינה. Because of this, we want to make this website and all its resources available to the public without extra delays. As such, we have opened this website with a minimal amount of materials, including music, shiurim and publications and are constantly adding more materials.
The following is a list of projects and features that will B'ezras Hashem be done through the Organization and/or added to the website:
- Kosher Track - One of the greatest accomplishments of the Kosher Music Organization will be the creation of what we refer to as "Kosher Track." This will be clear guidelines for musicians and singers (as well as anyone else interested) as to what constitutes kosher and treif music. The grey areas will be clearly defined as well as the topic of b'dieved songs. This will include both written documentation and audio/video examples as needed. Currently, we are working on adding the audio and video examples. We hope to have this ready בע"ה by אב תשפ"ה. (Please note that during this time, the number of new albums added will be greatly limited.)
- These guidelines will contain two parts. The first part will be a short overview of what is kosher or not, and to what level, as well as contain basic audio examples for demonstration. The Second version will be highly detailed, containing hundreds of audio (and/or video) examples to clearly define the fine details of kosher music. This will include some basic sources, but the main details will focus on the actual music rather than the sources. Topics to be discussed are: Instruments, sounds, styles, מדות, singers, volume, lighting, and more... As mentioned above, we are trying to complete this project by אב תשפ"ה.

- Advanced shiurim on the subject of kosher and non kosher music. In these shiurim, both the sources and the fine details of both positive and negative sides of music will be discussed and will be supplemented with audio and video clips to allow for maximum clarity. (These shiurim will not be available for sale through the website as they will only be available to parents and mechanchim. We will post updates when they become available.)
- Live/Video presentations to be given in Yeshivos and Bais Yaakovs clearly defining what is kosher and non kosher music together with the sources, and how negative influences infiltrated our community. At the end will be practical guidance on how to amend the situation
- Hundreds of additional albums of kosher music and Nuschaos HaT'filla/ Krias HaTorah from around the world. (Please note that until we complete the Kosher Track Guidelines, there will be a limited amount of new albums added.)
- Shiurim on the topics of kosher music from Rabbonim, musicians and music experts, as well as from ba'alei teshuva who have fallen to the lowest depths because of treif music and pulled themselves out.
- Books and publications on the topics of kosher music.
- If anyone has any record, tape, cd or kosher intros they would like to add to our library, please contact us so that one of our team members can review its kashrus and obtain copyright permissions to make it available.
- If anyone knows of a kosher musician, singer, arranger, recording studio, etc. please tell them to contact us if they are interested in being listed on our website or in any of our future printed ads.
- Sponsorships are available for the production of the presentations, advanced shiurim, and Kosher Track Guidelines as well as for the furtherance of kosher music research and education. If you would like to sponsor any of these projects, please see our Donate page or contact us.
