Betsy Caplan MacCarthy and her husband, John MacCarthy, former Muhlenberg physics professor, traveled to England in January to attend a singing workshop led by John Rutter, world-renowned composer and conductor of choral music. Out of 845 participants, they traveled the farthest. This was a 38-year “bucket list” wish for Betsy. She also had an opportunity to speak with the composer and found out that they had a mutual acquaintance.
