Story behind the song
Trollkjerringslatt fra Hornelen One of the older folk music documents of Nordfjord in Norway, first noted by Hans Michael Seehus (1724-1784). Hornelen is one of two mountains by Nordfjord said to be inhabited by wiches. After the meal, the devils own orchestra, accompanied the witches dance. The Leitrim Fancy A traditional irish double jig The Hag at The Churn Folk superstition said that witches would inhabit a churn to steal butter. They could not abide this particular tune, however, so it would be played as a ward when the chore of churning butter was done.

This music is just wonderful and wonderfully played. Definitely among the best I've heard. And I've heard a lot of music in my time.
