Sebene
The Sebene is a kind of instrumental bridge typically executed on the electric guitar and is a characteristic element of the Congolese rumba. The development of the sebene in congolese music has been credited to both Franco Luambo and congolise-born guitarist-producer Plamedi Faustino, but it predates both of them with Congolese guitarist Henri Bowane being the reputed inventor in the 1940s.[1] In the sebene, one or more guitarists repeat short phrases, while the lead player improvises around the theme.
