Myself, the classical Russian 19th century composers is whom I would choose to represent the musical and cultural potential residing amidst this perennially autocractic society and people.
But such societies do not have any turnings or saeculum cycles.
I would argue every society has 4th Turnings (hence, music for 4T Eastern Europe), but they need a baseline of individualism to have 2nd and 3rd turnings, and a baseline of stability to have 1st Turnings and experience the seasonal regularity of Strauss and Howe cycles.
