Talmud for Rosh Hashanah 66:3
והשומע מן המתעסק לא יצא: אבל השומע מן המשמיע לעצמו מאי יצא לימא תיהוי תיובתיה דרבי זירא דאמר ליה רבי זירא לשמעיה איכוון ותקע לי
- Perhaps our authority includes 'making music' also under the head of 'practising'. NOR ONE WHO HEARS THE BLAST MADE BY ANOTHER WHEN PRACTISING. But one who hears the blast from another who is blowing for himself, we are to assume, does fulfil his obligation?
Jerusalem Talmud Rosh Hashanah
64Sifra Emor Parashah 11(7), Behar Parashah 2(4); Babli 33b/34a.“From where that there is a single sound preceding? The verse says, you shall convey the shofar. And from where that there is a single sound afterwards, the verse says, you shall convey the shofar65Lev. 25:9 reads: You shall convey the shofar of sounds in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month; on the Day of Atonement you shall convey the shofar in all of your land. It seems that they interpret “convey” as conveying a single sound.. So far the Jubilee, New Year’s day? You shall convey the shofar of sounds in the seventh month, on the tenth of the month, on the Day of Atonement. The verse did not have to say, in the seventh month. Why did the verse say, in the seventh month? Only that everything you are doing in the Seventh Month do as on the Tenth of the Month. Since here he blows, modulates, and blows, so also there he blows, modulates, and blows.”
