Lesiëm released its debut album, Mystic, Spirit, Voices, in 2000. When the album was released in the United States in 2002, it climbed to no. 7 on the U.S. Billboard charts. Lesiëm's second album, Chapter 2, was released in 2001 in Europe, and in the U.S.A. in 2003 under the title Illumination.
The first two albums were some sort of prelude for the pop-opera Times, which was Lesiëm's 3rd album (released as Auracle in U.S.A. in 2004). The musicians started their work in March 2002 and finished it in the end of July. The single Caritas (feat. Maggie Reilly and Chor der Deutschen Oper Berlin) was presented in December 2002 on the philanthropic TV-show of Jose Carreras "Carreras Gala".

Excelente creación
@angeldeleon5937
Este género es muy limitado a trabajos tan buenos. Después de Enigma y Era ... aún que sonarán similar por qué son el mismo género... Me parecen fenomenales. Más por la mezcla de la guitarra tipo flamenca.
@juanjosetapia9648
Más bien los acordes melódicos de la guitarra son buenos.
@juanjosetapia9648
Es correcto, Lesiem ha sacado buenas rolas que complementan la tripleta de Era, Enigma y Gregorian.
