Does anyone know of an iPhone app that recognises classical music?

I have Soundhound and Shazam which do pick up some classical music, but I'd really like one that is more thorough

Please let me know!

There isn't really a substitute for a human ear in this case, for there are many interpretations, and something like Shazam probably only recognizes a given interpretation. In the case of non-classical music, there is probably only one recording of a given song.
