Alla breve is a "simple-duple meter with a half-note pulse". [3] The note denomination that represents one beat is the minim or half-note. There are two of these per bar, so that the time signature 2 2 may be interpreted as "two minim beats per bar". Alternatively this is read as two beats per measure, where the half note gets the beat.
