What is 2/4 / Cut Time: Best Answer: The first two answers are kind of iffy. Cut time doesn't change the value of the notes as they imply. Rather, cut time changes the "feel" of the music, making it seem to go twice as fast. This can also be called Double Time Feel. The time signature becomes 2/2, which means two half notes in each measure, as compared to 4/4, which is four quarter notes per measure. You will notice that two half notes is the same value as four quarter notes, but this just simplifies the notation and once again makes the music feel twice as fast. It can also depend on the song or piece. The same composer may use 2/4 for another piece, which is two quarter notes per measure. In turn, they would have to have twice as many measures in the piece. It would be the same as having 4/4, but the conductor conducts in 2, and the feel is twice as fast.
