He was born on October 13, 1959, in St. Petersburg, Russia (formerly Leningrad, USSR). From a young age, Kreizberg showed immense potential in music and began studying piano and conducting. Kreizberg's career took off in the 1980s when he won the prestigious Herbert von Karajan Conducting Competition in Berlin. This victory catapulted him onto the international stage, leading to engagements with major orchestras around the world. He held several significant positions throughout his career, including serving as the principal conductor of the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and later as the music director of the Monte Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra. Kreizberg was highly regarded for his versatility and mastery of both the symphonic repertoire and opera.

He was also celebrated for his interpretations of Viennese classics by composers like Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms.
