The change right about at the 1 minute mark from the music preceding it is something I really like in this and different songs, what is is called, if anything?

The change is Cmin to Bmaj. The melody uses the lydian mode of the B.

I can give further detail, just let me know.

No, that's great info - I'd never heard of "lydian mode" before, learned something new. :D
