Today, tubaist William Roper announces “The Scalene Triangle,” a new collaborative album with saxophonists and fellow Arkestra members Devin Daniels and Randal Fisher, out August 21st on Minaret Records.

The Scalene Triangle brings together an intergenerational trio of musicians born and raised in South Central Los Angeles: Roper (71), Fisher (36), and Daniels (29).
The project took shape over four meetings, where the three shared stories and memories of growing up while also creating drawings in response to their conversations. Roper later composited the drawings into four graphic scores, which became the foundation for the music on the album.
Why scalene? In Roper’s words: “Scalene Triangle is unequalness. Each angle is different, which means each side is a different length. And that’s what we are: we are not equal in many ways, but because of our unequalness, we can stand together as a unit.”
4 songs, 82 minutes, 3 distinct voices coming together as one … unequally. Pre-order the album now on bandcamp and get an exclusive single “Vortex” 📐
The physical edition of The Scalene Triangle (limited to an edition of 33) is a double CD accompanied by a zine featuring the four graphic scores, liner notes, and photography, as well as a 4×6 art print — all housed in a custom triangular box
Join us this Friday (8/21) at The World Stage in Leimert Park for the album release concert, where The Scalene Triangle Trio will perform this music publicly for the first time, with special guest Quran Shaheed.
