Music Through the Night

About

Host Peter van de Graaff draws music selections from all eras for the overnight program, with many works coming from the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods. Though Peter focuses on the standards, he doesn’t hesitate to go beyond, into the rich and varied music that comprises what we call “classical music.” It’s always a journey with Peter, whether he’s playing a collection of lullabies or pieces for Shakespeare plays – each of his programs spins a delightful yarn through the world of music.
