Zátopek! by Emily Howard with a libretto by Selma Dimitrijevic is a 13 minute and 57 seconds mini-opera for seven singers, adult and children's choir, chamber ensemble (2012) 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.
