Hi,
Unless I'm mistaken, cut-common and common-time are actually different
things.
Cut-common is the same as 2/2 not 4/4, whereas common-time and 4/4 are
the same thing.
Cut-common is usually represented with a C with a slash through.
Cut-common is often found in band parts and effectively doubles the
pace, at least that is my interpretation.
Any other opinions?
Regards,
Ralph

Interesting; what is the difference between C and 4/4?
