''Salvation is Created'' is a choral work composed by Pavel Tchesnokov in 1912. It was one of the very last sacred works he composed before he was forced to turn to secular arts by the Soviet government. Although he never heard his own composition performed, his children had the opportunity to in the years following his death. ''Salvation is Created'' was originally published in 1913 by J. Fischer and Bro. but its popularity drove editors to produce many different versions in both Russian and English. Scored for either six or eight voices (SATTBB or SSAATTBB), the work is a communion hymn based on a synodal Kievan chant melody and Psalm 74 (73 in the Greek version). The original Russian text is as follows: *Russian Script: ''Cпасение coдeлaл еси посреде земли, Боже. Аллилуия''. *Phonetic Alphabet: ''Spaséniye sodélal yesí posredé ziemlí, Bózhe. Allilúiya''. *English: ''Salvation is made in the midst of the earth, O God. Alleluia''. ::(Tchesnokov 2002) The keys of B minor and D major are the work’s primary key centers, and it is cast in AA’ or two part strophic form. ==References== * Rommereim, J. C.
