I think it's fairly safe to assume 半夜 = around midnight (or more generally "ungodly late hours"), with the exception of maybe 前半夜 / 后半夜 for either half of the night. 半个晚上 also works for a non-specific half of the night.

(See also: the idiom 半夜三更, which is basically the same thing, but with More Flavour.)

Thank you! Helpful. I'm just gonna memorize it by singing to myself "It begins to tell, 大半夜，大半夜..." (strange and outdated musical tastes...)
