SongStream 2: An American Journey is a second collection of ten songs for youth choirs, largely scored for SAB with some divisi and optional parts. These exciting, accessible, and stylistically varied pieces take you on a journey from Canada through North to Central and South America. They include original pieces and arrangements with a strong regional flavour, among them folk-songs, a spiritual, and new arrangements of popular tunes. Arrangements by editors Peter Hunt and Bob Chilcott appear alongside those by native composers, in a collection that will communicate directly with young singers and freshen any concert programme.

Edited by Bob Chilcott and Peter Hunt Bob Chilcott has been involved with choral music all his life, first as a Chorister and then a Choral Scholar at King's College, Cambridge. Later, he sang and composed music for 12 years with the King's Singers. His experiences with that group, his passionate commitment to young and amateur choirs, and his profound belief that music can unite people, have inspired him both to compose full-time and, through proactive workshopping, to promote choral music worldwide.
Peter Hunt is Head of Voice for Berkshire Young Musicians Trust and the inspiration behind OUP's successful Voiceworks series. He has a wide experience of school
teaching at primary and seconday levels, and was co-founder of the highly acclaimed Oxfordshire Youth Chamber Choir. From 2000-2002 he was also an Advisory Teacher for the county's vocal strategy. His extensive experience as a choral animateur, workshop leader, conductor, and arranger, and his career in education have contributed directly to his understanding of the needs of young singers.Bob Chilcott's website

"This collection contains a wide-ranging and vibrant set of beautifully crafted and classy arrangements of songs from the Americas. There are arrangements of traditional songs, for example a boisterous version of Buffalo Gals, and a particularly gorgeous setting of a Mexican folksong, Señora Santa Ana, with its scrumptious, harmonically-unsettled opening piano part. There are also some stunning original compositions . . This superb set is a much-needed addition to the SAB repertoire." - Paul Ayres, Sheet Music Review Sept 06 "This second collection of songs for youth choirs follows in the path successfully blazed by the first volume in the series. The arrangements are largely scored for SAB to keep them within the scope of
choirs with developing young men's voices. That said, the arrangements are imaginative and in no way suggest that compromises have had to be made to fulfil the SAB criterion. . . you have a collection to be enjoyed not just by the young but by the young at heart. This is thoroughly reocmmended." - Christopher Field, Music Teacher July 2007
