people,so I opened an adult music class at Austin Community College.Again,the outcome of that experience I couldn’t have imagined either.Besides being a ton of fun for me,Leslie met three other women in the class who decided after the term was over to get together once a week to play string quartets(弦乐四重奏).I recently ran into Lola(the oldest member of the group who is now in her 70’s)and she said the group still meets regularly.</p>
