    Palo Alto Philharmonic's third concert contains a piece that Music Director Shoebotham considers one of the most special, moving works in all 20th century music, Strauss' Four Last Songs: "They are the last works he composed in his long life, and are a tribute to his strong love of the soprano voice. Even though he could not have expected his soprano wife to sing them, we may legitimately imagine these works as a tribute to her." Also on the program is Mozart's Overture to the Magic Flute and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 5, a thrilling, dramatic work. Program: Overture to the Magic Flute by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Four Last Songs by Richard Strauss Symphony No. 5 in E minor, Op. 64 by Piotr Tchaikovsky
