"On the whole, I like classical music more than R&B"

Come on, that's no difference at all :P.

Rtyom: obviously.

Я согласен с Тату, лучше звучит сказать "on the whole" в начале предложения.

But you specifically said you put it at the END.

And Rytom,
R&B sucks (R&B is a singular noun)

ребята, довольно редко используется фраза "on the whole", не надо обращать столько внимания на неё!
