Brits can't distinguish between classical composers and Italian cheese

London,(ANI): A Brit survey has shown that a large number of people fail to distinguish between classical composers from that of Italian cheese.

The survey found a small number of people (4 per cent) wrongly identified bocconcini - the small Italian cheese balls - as a composer.

Sixty-eight per cent did not know that Tchaikovsky wrote the 1812 Overture, reports the Telegraph.

Yet despite the lack of knowledge, feelings towards classical music remained positive.

Only 16 per cent said they disliked classical music.

More men (65 per cent) were keen on it than women (58 per cent). Age was a big factor when it came to enjoyment of classical music, with more over-55s (74 per cent) than under-35s (51 per cent) saying they liked it.

The survey is published in the September edition of the Reader's Digest
