The Boston Cello Quartet was founded in 2010 by the Boston Symphony Orchestra cellists Blaise Dejardin, Adam Esbensen, Mihail Jojatu and Alexandre Lecarme.
Favorites of the Tanglewood audience, the quartet opened for the Grammy Award-winning rock band Train at the Koussevitzky Music Shed in 2011 and two years later was featured as a solo group for Tanglewood on Parade, performing the James Bond Concertino with the Boston Pops and Keith Lockhart.
In 2013, their debut album "Pictures" quickly rose to the Top 50 Classical Music Albums on iTunes. Another album "The Latin Project" followed in 2016.
Fanfare Magazine described their debut CD as: "suave and polished playing, with absolutely stunning phrasing and technical precision. Superb music making".
Gramophone Magazine described their second album as "a blend of suavity, succulent vibrato and simmering passion that serves the music beautifully."
They also recorded the videogame soundtrack for "Of Orcs and Men" in 2012.
