According to Wikipedia, Charles Hague was an English violinist and composer, who became professor of music at Cambridge University. Life Hague was born at Tadcaster, Yorkshire, and was taught music and the violin by his elder brother, William. In 1779 he moved with his brother to Cambridge, where he studied the violin under Antony Manini, and thorough-bass and composition under Hellendaal the Elder. He acquired a reputation as a violin player, which led to a friendship with Joseph Jowett, then regius professor of civil law. Manini died in 1785, and Hague moved to London and studied under Johann Peter Salomon and Benjamin Cooke. On his return to Cambridge he took pupils, among whom was William Crotch, and in 1794 as a member of Trinity Hall, Cambridge proceeded Mus.B. In 1799 he succeeded John Randall as professor of music, and in 1801 proceeded Mus.D.
