С точки зрения значительной часто ортодоксии все, что этот человек делал всю жизнь, было в высшей степени проблематичным. Но Ребе не упомянул об этом ни словом, и вообще был в высшей степени доброжелателен:
Your joining this ever growing Chasidic family who have found a new meaning in life and, with it, peace and happiness, has a special significance in that you are a Kohen, and also in that Divine Providence has given you a gift of song and melody. For this is a medium that directly communicates with the heart and the inner aspects of the soul, unlike prose which speaks to the intellect and only then can probe deeper. Through the medium of song and melody one can touch directly upon the heartstrings of the listener and inspire his inner soul, which is the reason why song and melody have such a prominent part in Chasidus in general, and in Chabad in particular.
In the light of the above, I extend to you both my prayerful wishes to utilize to the full the capacities and opportunities which G‑d has given you in the above mentioned direction, and to do this in the Chabad way - with complete trust in G‑d and with inspiration, and may G‑d bless you with Hatzlocho to go from strength to strength in all above, in good health and with gladness of heart.
