Sadly, it’s always the dead musicians who develop the biggest following. While Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart may not be alive, his musical legacy is still strong, and orchestras and chamber musicians all over the world celebrate his music. This weekend, the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra performs an all-Mozart program to commemorate what would have been the famed-composer’s 250th birthday. Led by acclaimed conductor Stefan Sanderling and featuring Polish-born principal horn player Jacek Muzyk, the BPO will perform several Mozart works, including his famous “Symphony No. 40.” For all non-Mozart aficionados: you may recognize this musical piece from several films, including the James Bond flick The Living Daylights. (Well, maybe.) So if you’re looking to do something different to celebrate Mozart’s 250th birthday, check out the BPO as they play some of his “greatest hits.” It will be much easier than trying to say the word “bisesquicentennial” ten times fast.

Saturday (Jan. 28), 8pm; Sunday (Jan. 29), 2:30pm. Kleinhans Music Hall, 71 Symphony Circle (885-5000). $15-$67.
