I am working on the new Liszt Thematic Catalogue and am trying to find
an article on the above transcription by a Russian musicologist named
Kiselev. If anyone could tell me when and where this article appeared I
would be most grateful.

Vasilii Aleksandrovich Kiselev (b. 1902) was a writer on music who had
dozens of articles on Tchaikovsky published in journals such as
Sovetskaia muzyka and Muzykal'naia zhizn' from the 1930s up to
the 1970s. This particular Kiselev seems to have been was more of a
researcher/historian, rather than a musiciologist, so I don't know if this
is your man.
I've checked a catalogue of over 8,000 books and journal articles on
Tchaikovsky, without finding the item in question. However, perhaps
someone with access to the Music Index database, or similar,
will be able to answer your question...
