1861 is a lyric hymn/fantasia for young concert bands based on the beautiful 19th century Anglican hymn “Lead Me Lord” (written in 1861 by Charles Sebastian Wesley). The hymn itself features a gorgeous melodic lineover biting harmonies and striking counterpoint and provides the pillars for this work. First is a soloistic treatment followed with a dramatic full band tutti and finally a section of evocative humming. Throughout are uniquetextures and colorful improvisitory accompaniments.
