Halakhah sobre Sotá 9:11
מִשֶּׁבָּטְלָה סַנְהֶדְרִין, בָּטְלָה הַשִּׁיר מִבֵּית הַמִּשְׁתָּאוֹת, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ישעיה כד) בַּשִּׁיר לֹא יִשְׁתּוּ יָיִן וְגוֹ':
Quando o Sinédrio cessou, o cântico cessou dos lugares de festa, como é dito: “Eles bebem o vinho sem cantar” (Isaías 24: 9).
Gray Matter III
In light of the above, it is not surprising to find that Chazal issued a number of restrictions regarding music. The Mishnah (Sotah 9:11) records that when the Sanhedrin (high rabinnic court) ceased to function, Chazal forbade song in the wine houses. The Yerushalmi (Sotah 9:12) explains the reason for this decree: “At first, people feared the authority of the Sanhedrin and would not introduce inappropriate content in song, but now [that the Sanhedrin has ceased to function], people no longer fear its authority and would introduce corrupt lyrics into music.”
