    Flying On Your Own recalled ANDREA NEMETZ ARTS REPORTER Published March 7, 2014 - 9:28pm Last Updated March 7, 2014 - 9:29pm Collaborator heard MacNeil’s hit decades ago; now he leads orchestra in tribute Late Cape Breton songstress Rita MacNeil will be honoured this weekend in two Symphony Nova Scotia concerts Flying on Your Own: A Tribute to Rita MacNeil. The singer died last April at the age of 68. (FILE) Scott Macmillan thinks he was the first person to hear Rita MacNeil’s classic ballad Flying On Your Own. “There was a wonderful group of us that would play at the Middle Deck,” recalls Macmillan, a longtime collaborator of the late Cape Breton songstress. “We did several nights at a time. The band was hot — Allie Bennett on bass, John Alphonse on drums, Ralph Dillon on keyboards and myself on guitar. “One night, Rita came in early and said she had some songs she wanted to sing for me. The four songs were all good, but Flying On Your Own stood out.” Released nearly 30 years ago, Flying On Your Own was the biggest hit for the beloved Big Pond singer-songwriter, who died April 16 at the age of 68. She sang it in her last performance, on March 9, 2013, with Symphony Nova Scotia, in a concert that was part of the East Coast Music Award celebrations. A year later, Symphony Nova Scotia will honour the three-time Juno Award winner with Flying on Your Own: A Tribute to Rita MacNeil. Shows are tonight at 7:30 p.m.
