Let the River Run - June 2018 Under the direction of Dr. Anne J. Matlack Harmonium Choral Society Grace Episcopal Church, 4 Madison Ave, Madison, NJ Helen Raymaker, piano; Shelli Skeels, flute Solo: Michele Yurecko, Kim Williams, Jamie Vergara Allister MacGillivray is a Canadian singer/songwriter, guitarist, folklorist, author, record producer, and music historian. His songs are largely Celtic in style and Maritime in flavor, including Away from the Roll of the Sea, Here’s To Song and his best-known work, Song for the Mira, which has become a standard in the Celtic repertoire and something of an anthem in Nova Scotia. Written in 1973, its lyrics speak of a longing for, and eventual return to, the serenity of the Mira River region of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.
