His father was of Jewish origin and also a professional violinist who survived the holocaust, after which his wife gave birth to their son in 1947. Kremer began playing violin at the age of four, mentored by his father and grandfather, and then went on to study at the Riga School of Music before going on to attend the Moscow Conservatory under the guidance of the famed Soviet violinist David Oistrakh.
At the age of 22, after winning the prestigious Paganini Competition in 1969, Kremer won the coveted International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 1970. Subsequently Kremer enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame on the international classical music scene, playing for the Berlin Philharmonie and then making appearances across Europe, the States and Japan.
