ABIGAIL JUDGE [1]. Irish, March or Air (4/4 time). G Minor. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Composed by blind Irish harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738).
The melody is married to a jig in Bunting's General Collection of Ancient Irish Music (1796, p. 25) under two separate titles, "Madam Judge" and "Planxty Judge" (the later being the jig). The air (or first part) was transcribed by Bunting from the playing of Daniel Black, while the jig is from High Higgins. Donal O'Sullivan (Carolan, the Life and Times of an Irish Harper, 1958) identifies the person of the title as the wife of Thomas Judge of Grangebeg, County Westmeath, who she married in 1707 (see Carolan's tune for him, entitled "Thomas Judge/Carolan's Frolic).
