Athalia (HWV 52) is an English-language oratorio composed by George Frideric Handel to a libretto by Samuel Humphreys based on the play Athalie by Jean Racine. The work was commissioned in 1733 for the Publick Act in Oxford – a commencement ceremony of the University of Oxford, which had offered Handel an honorary doctorate (an honour he declined). The story is based on that of the Biblical queen Athaliah.Athalia, Handel's third oratorio in English, was completed on 7 June 1733, and first performed on 10 July 1733 at the Sheldonian Theatre in Oxford. The Bee (14 July 1733) reported that the performance was "performed with the utmost Applause, and is esteemed equal to the most celebrated of that Gentleman's Performances: there were 3700 Persons present".

  • Athalia (HWV 52) és un oratori en anglès de Georg Friedrich Händel del 1733, el tercer que va compondre d'aquest tipus. En aquesta obra hi ha assoliments estructurals i retòrics per part de Händel que projecten un concepte dramàtic que pot ser únic dins la seva producció musical. Va ser un encàrrec per a la Publick Act a Oxford, una cerimònia durant la inauguració dels cursos als college locals, un dels quals havia ofert a Händel un doctorat honorari, que ell rebutjà. La història es basa en la reina bíblica Atalia. (ca)
