Salvation is Creatd was  one of the very last sacred works composed by Tschesnokoff before the Soviet regime forced him to turn to secular arts. Years after his death communism fell, the Berlin Wall came down and the Russian Orthodox Church opened its doors again. Salvation is Created became the unofficial anthem of the church. Tschesnokoff never heard the piece performed, but his children were finally able to hear it years later. Scored for an eight player marimba choir with optional vibraphone, chimes, timpani and crash cymbals. Requires one 5-octave and three 4.3 octave marimbas.
