A Jewish music player where every song was approved first
· Written by the Lehallel team · Questions: 718-971-4311 (a real person) or team@lehallel.com
Most music players are built around one idea: keep something playing.For a Jewish home that is exactly the problem, because the next thing to play is chosen by a machine that does not share your standard. Lehallel’s player works the other way round: the whole library was approved first, so the queue, the search box and Up next can only ever hold music somebody said yes to.
What is in the library (September 2026)
The music is organized the way people actually ask for it. On the day this page was updated the approved library held 8,581 English songs, 7,202 Israeli songs, 2,256 Chassidishe nigunim, 1,704 cantorialrecordings, 1,259 songs for dancing, 1,205 instrumental pieces, 728 Mizrachi songs, 714 Shabbos songs, 364 a cappella, 297 wedding and event recordings, 293 Yiddish songs, 285 children’s songs and stories, 242 Yemenite, 197 Carlebach and 175 for relaxing — plus a shelf for the season: 127 songs for the Yamim Noraim and 101 for Sukkos.
Every artist has a page. The artists with the most approved music include Moshe Habusha, Yaakov Shwekey, Mendel Markel, Yaakov Lemmer, Mordechai Ben David, Yitzchak Meir, Dudi Kalish, Hanan Ben Ari and Ira Heller. Full concerts are kept whole, and albums are kept in order as series.
How the player works on a phone
Open lehallel.com on a phone and Music is one of the rooms on the home screen. Start a song and it plays in a small player at the bottom of the screen that stays while you search, open a shiur, or read — the music does not stop because you looked at something else.
The player keeps a queue and shows what is Up next. You choose what happens when the queue runs out — keep going with Up next, or stop. There is a sleep timer for the end of the night and a speed control. Like a song or save it to a playlist; with a free account your playlists follow you to every device.
What it leaves out on purpose
There is no advertising, no comment section and no feed deciding what you should hear. Nothing that was not approved can play next, because nothing that was not approved is in the library. Men’s and women’s music is separated by the account’s own setting.
It is also not a filter for your phone. If the open internet is reachable on a device, a music library on that device does not change that — two different jobs, and we would rather say so.

Frequently asked
What is a Jewish music player?
A player built for Jewish music, where what can play has been decided before you press play. On Lehallel every song in the library was judged against one written standard first, so the search box, the queue and whatever plays next can only hold approved music.

Are men's and women's music separated?
Yes, by the account's own setting, not by asking anyone to be careful.
