		His recording of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, thus, finds pedantic justification in the inclusion of a repeat of the whole opening part of the Scherzo that is probably unique: the composer (according to a thesis by a Boulez pupil on this subject) lef4, out the repeat-marks through sheer carelessness.
		The disc thus has documentary value: bult it is unforlunate that the execution of the music is so ponderous, uncommitted and lacking in drama.
		His search for extreme clarity, so ithat one hears every note the composer wrote with the right balance within the texture, underlies his acceptance of all the most advanced recording techniques.

	Parkour: Interesting Thing of the Day
		It’s sometimes considered an “extreme” sport; as its participants dash around a city, they may vault over fences, run up walls, and even jump from rooftop to rooftop.
		Co-founder Sebastien Foucan, in a 2003 BBC documentary called “Jump London,” referred to the sport as “free-running”—apparently as a simple attempt at an English translation—and that term caught on in the media.
		However, parkour purists feel that the direction in which Foucan has taken the activity is entirely different (in both execution and philosophy) from what he and Belle had originally developed—and that what is now known as free-running should not be confused with “true” parkour (which Belle still promotes).
