| Orchestral music brought the university's 150th Birthday celebration to a triumphant close as crowds jammed the quadrangle for a complimentary performance by the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra. Playing to a wall-to-wall crowd estimated at more than 7,000, the symphony's performance was backed up by what some described as a natural lightshow -- a dramatic sunset that capped a gorgeous fall day, filling the horizon with hues that transitioned slowly from gold, to mauve, to purple. |
