weird time signatures. For example (pardon my ignorance), what is the
difference between a crotchet ("whole note" for the USA) in 4/4 time (tempo
crotchet = 60) and a minim in 4/2 time (tempo minum = 60)? If there is no
difference, why use the latter?
   

 Musicians tend to play a lot more legato in 4/2 than 4/4.  Listen to
some Sibelius to see what I mean.
