Theater Talk's Peter Hall

About Peter Hall

Peter Hall has worn many hats at Buffalo Toronto Public Media where, after 20 years, he has retired “mostly.”  Peter’s distinctive voice and friendly presentation have been heard by over a million listeners as a classical music host and by viewers on several of WNED PBS local cooking shows and other membership programs. 

Over the years, he produced and hosted "Buffalo Philharmonic Live" featuring BPO Performances conducted by JoAnn Falletta; produced over 1,000 radio interviews with musical artists and was the emcee for the JoAnn Falletta International Guitar Concerto Competition, among other gigs.

If you see Peter at a play or musical with a pen in his hand, he’s probably getting ready to co-host “Theater Talk” with Anthony Chase (heard Friday mornings at 6:45 and 8:45 am on WBFO) or writing a review for www.buffalorising.comOr deciding his vote as a member of the “Artie Awards” committee!

"Mostly" retired means that in addition to “Theater Talk” on WBFO, WNED Classical listeners can catch Peter hosting Sunday Afternoons from 1-5 pm and Monday “Late Nite” with two hours of chamber music from 10 to midnight.  

Peter holds a B.A. in Comparative Literature from Columbia University and an M.B.A. from SUNY at Buffalo.
