Vladimir Krassovsky

Vladimir Vadimovich Krassovsky (Russian: Влади́мир Вади́мович Красо́вский; born 22 November 1950, Bangkok) is the choir director of the Holy Virgin Cathedral.

Vladimir graduated from the University of San Francisco with a bachelor's degree in Russian literature and music.

From 1969 to 1978, he was an assistant to the icon painter Father Cyprian (Pyzhov) from the Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, who was invited to San Francisco to paint the Cathedral and other Orthodox churches in California.

For several years he went to the icon-painting workshop at the Holy Trinity Monastery in order to improve in icon painting.

In 1985, having received the blessing of Father Cyprian, he left his service in the insurance company and devoted himself entirely to icon painting.
