Хотя, честно, говоря, "знакомый либретиста Генделя" - рекомендация так себе Типа "сосед одноклассника Шостаковича"

His contact with Charles Jennens was apparently close enough to have met Handel in his house, either in London or at his country seat in Gopsall. An unconfirmed anecdote has Handel entering a room where Mudge was playing one of his compositions and exclaiming: "That must be Mudge for no other man could play my pieces so"; this may or may not have been intended as a compliment!

“Ancient and modern movingly interweave in these accomplished concertos by the Devon-born, 18th-century composer Richard Mudge…..The Swiss ensemble Capriccio brings strong gestures and crisp articulation to this quintessentially English idiom.” The Observer, 24th May 2009

“The music pushes forward Handel's style with continental chromaticisms, and includes a lively organ concerto as the last work of the six. But then comes the big surprise: a touching reworking of the old canon "Non nobis Domine", complete with three voices singing.” The Observer, 24th May 2009
