one for December:

This piece is based on an Icelandic folktale which tells of a certain Troll who used to torment farmers on Christmas Eve.  One night a little girl stayed behind to look after the houses while the rest of her people went to observe the mass.  In the middle of the night she heard a voice outside her window and started singing to keep fear at bay.  At the end of her song the thing vanished.  When farmers returned the next morning they found a great stone right outside the house, where it stands to this day.
