About
Commissioned by Second Movement, Zátopek is a chamber opera with music by Emily Howard and libretto by Selma Dmitrijevic, inspired by the life and times of iconic Czech long distance runner Emil Zátopek (1922-2000). At the 1952 Helsinki Olympics Zátopek achieved a sensational hat-trick winning gold at 5000m, 10,000m and the marathon, with a winning time at 5000m of 14 minutes and 6 seconds. Zátopek! is a thrilling near real time musical recreation of this legendary race and celebration of its extraordinary winner.
