Antonín Dvořák composed his String Quartet No. 6 in A minor, B. 40 Op. 12, in November and December 1873, finishing it on 5 December. He later revised it, but at this stage left the work unfinished. After a reconstruction by Jarmil Burghauser, with minimal additions, a first recording was made by the Prague String Quartet, for Deutsche Grammophon, in March and April 1977.
