🎶 Positive and Ethical Masculinity in Music: Empathy & Hope in the Lyrics of Tsoi and Tellier
In a world where masculinity is too often tied to power, dominance, or silence, the voices of artists like Viktor Tsoi and Sébastien Tellier offer us a different vision. Through their songs, we hear not aggression, but vulnerability; not control, but empathy; not despair, but hope.
This event invites us into the poetic universes of two iconic musicians—Tsoi, the legendary Russian rock frontman whose quiet strength and collective voice shaped a generation, and Tellier, the French dreamer whose intimate, surreal ballads reimagine love, tenderness, and fragility.
Together, their music becomes a space to explore:
✨ How simplicity in words can hold deep emotional truth
✨ How men can express longing, care, and vulnerability without losing strength
✨ How empathy and hope are carried across cultures—from Soviet nights to French synth-dreams
✨ What ethical masculinity might sound like when set to melody
Through guided listening, discussion, and reflection, we’ll explore how these artists transform personal and collective struggles into songs that transcend borders, reminding us that masculinity can be gentle, ethical, and deeply human.
Join us for an evening of music, dialogue, and shared reflection on how Tsoi and Tellier’s lyrics speak not only to their own times, but to our need for empathy and hope in the future.
