Leipzig, 25 Febr. 1841 … I do not know Moscheles’ communication to which you refer … but cannot deny that I felt rather surprised to receive an invitation from the Philharmonic Society to write a new movement to my Symphony in A, while I thought I had never acquainted the Society of my intention of doing so. I even confess that your letter does not alter my ideas on that subject; for although I am perfectly aware that I had once such a plan and spoke of it to you, as I did to many of my musical friends at that time, I very much doubt I have spoken the words which you mention in your letter; indeed I cannot have done so, or at least you cannot have considered that conversation as intended for the Philharmonic Directors, because I find the year after it had taken place the Symphony was performed at that Society, which circumstance you seem to have forgotten … But all this merely refers to the invitation to write a new movement to an old composition of mine. It is quite erroneous and far from what my true feelings are if you suppose in your letter, that I required the least explanation, why this Symphony „has not been performed“. Of such a thing I shall never complain or express any regret, because I always consider it as a natural consequence of the real value of a composition, and you recollect that I often mentioned to you and to other friends how far from satisfied I feel with this, and indeed with almost all my other compositions. I need hardly add that my personal feelings of high regard and esteem towards the Philharmonic Directors individually are and shall always be the same; that I am well aware that I have amongst them some of my kindest and best friends in your country, friends to whom I am indepted for the benevolent reception which I so often met with in England which will ever remain a source of pleasure and pride to me; and that my gratitude to those friends will and can not be diminished as long as I live. Believe me, my dear Mr. Neate always very truly yours Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.
