“Baby, Dream Your Dream” will bring the music of six legendary women writers of the Great American Songbook to Guild Hall on Sunday at 7 p.m. The 75-minute revue has been created and will be hosted by Deborah Grace Winer, a dramatist, writer, producer, and leading expert on American music and musical theater.

Accompanied by a jazz trio, the singers Karen Ziemba, Margo Seibert, and Natalie Douglas will perform standards by Marilyn Bergman, Dorothy Fields, Mary Rodgers, Jeanine Tesori, Betty Comden, and Carolyn Leigh. Tickets are $40 to $75, $38 to $70 for members.

Zoe Sarnak, an award-winning singer-songwriter of musical theater, rock, pop, soul, and folk music, will perform with an ensemble of collaborators from the theater and music worlds next Thursday at 8 p.m.

Ms. Sarnak’s combination of music and theatrical storytelling has been performed at the Public Theater, Playwrights Horizons, 54 Below, and the Highline Ballroom, among other venues. Tickets are $22 to $55, $20 to $53 for members.

“Lessons of Humanity: What My Grandfather Taught Me,” a performance by Samite, a renowned musician, humanitarian, and photographer born and raised in Uganda, will take place Friday, July 13, at 8:30 p.m.

A master of both traditional African and western musical instruments, Samite left Uganda as a political refugee in 1982 and emigrated to the United States in 1987. His multicultural songs reflect on childhood, motherhood, marriage, African village life, politics, and peace. Tickets are $22 to $55, $20 to $53 for members. M.S.
