            My dear Sir
When I did not find you at home yesterday morning, I hoped to meet with you at the Philharmonic concert; but as I was disappointed I am obliged to write to you, in order to express my best thanks for the music you most kindly sent me yesterday. Your Sanctus was unknown to me, & I am the more indebted to you for having given it to me, as you know how great an admirer of the true church music I am. I hope to hear it performed during my stay & as for the Canzonett I hope your daughter will sing it once for me, when I shall have an occasion to express to you myself, what a pleasure you have been giving to me.
Believe me dear Siryours very truly
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy
Tuesday. 103 Gt Portland Street.

S.; Adresse. – Der Brief wurde an einem Dienstag nach einem der Konzerte der Philharmonic Society, die immer montags stattfanden, geschrieben. Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy hat 1833 drei Konzerte der Society besucht: am 29. April, 13. Mai und 10. Juni. Das Konzert im Juni kommt nicht infrage, denn Abraham Mendelssohn Bartholdy und Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy bezogen erst am 13. Juni die Z. 13 erwähnte Wohnung in 103 Portland Street. Vgl. Brief Nr. 729 (fmb-1833-06-14-01 Abraham Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy und Carl Klingemann an Lea Mendelssohn Bartholdy und die Familie Mendelssohn Bartholdy in Berlin; London, 12., 13. und 14. Juni 1833), Z. 67. Der Brief ist somit auf den 30. April oder 14. Mai 1833 zu datieren.</p> <handDesc hands="1"> <p>Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy</p> </handDesc> <accMat> <listBibl> <bibl type="none"></bibl> </listBibl></accMat> </physDesc> <history> <provenance> <p>-</p> </provenance> </history> </msDesc> </sourceDesc> </fileDesc> <encodingDesc><projectDesc><p>Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Correspondence Online-Ausgabe FMB-C: Digitale Edition der vollständigen Korrespondenz Hin- und Gegenbriefe Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdys auf XML-TEI-Basis.</p></projectDesc><editorialDecl><p>Die Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Correspondence Online-Ausgabe FMB-C ediert die Gesamtkorrespondenz des Komponisten Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy 1809-1847 in Form einer digitalen, wissenschaftlich-kritischen Online-Ausgabe.
