Μaster harpist Maria-Christina Harper and lute player Υiagos Hairetis create an original duo that combines the contemporary music scene of London with the musical tradition of Crete. “Draft” is the debut album of the Hairetis Harper project.

The album was written a year after their initial musical acquaintance when their improvisations took the form of complete tracks. The album was recorded at Suono Studio by Coti K. who also did the mastering and at the Music Art Lab by Nikos Asimakis.

In the seven tracks of the album, the two musicians combine masterfully the sounds of the two instruments and their musical influences, approaching the Cretan tradition in many ways and creating their own distinct sound.
