Aveilus on Purim

As as an aveil for my father am I allowed to receive and/or send mishloach manos. Also, am I allowed to hear music on Purim if I eat the seuda by family like my children where groups come and sign and dance with music.

Answer:

You may and should send Mishloach Manos. You should not receive Mishloach Manos, your family may be given the Mishloach Manos.

You may attend a seudah as in normal years. You should not participate in the dancing itself.
