Odoevsky, Gogol, Leskov, Pushkin (esp. in Arap Petra Velikogo). Leskov is particularly interesting. As for academic writing on the topic, I wrote on the Englishman in Zapechatlennyj angel. Others have done more, I am sure. Odoevsky is great on both composers and foreigners. For composers in Russ. Lit., Mandelstam has several poems--the most famous being "Oda Betkhovenu" and "Bach". Egipetskaia marka is also good, but it has been mentioned, I think. My apologies if the rest have also been mentioned already.
