Born in the former Soviet Union, Vadim Gluzman spent most of his childhood in Riga, Latvia, and began violin studies at age 7.^[1]^[2] He studied with Roman Šnē in Latvia and Zakhar Bron in Russia. In 1990, his family moved to Israel, where he became a student of Yair Kless. In the United States, his teachers were Arkady Fomin and, at the Juilliard School, Dorothy DeLay and Masao Kawasaki.
