Henri Bowane
Henri Bowane (1926–1992) was an influential figure in the development of soukous (Congolese rumba) in the Congo. He was the first professional boss and early mentor to the legendary guitarist François Luambo Makiadi, known as Franco.〔(Henri Bowane ). RetroAfric/Usurp (2003). Retrieved 2009-01-28〕
==Early career==
Bowane rose to prominence in the late 1940s Leopoldville African music scene, in which Cuban style music combined with Lingala and pan-Congolese styles. A guitarist, singer and bandleader, Bowane was paired with singer-guitarist Wendo Kolosoy by the Ngoma records. Ngoma was founded by Nicolas Jéronimidis and his brother, Greek businessmen based in Leopoldville, in 1947. It was among the first handful Congolese recording companies producing music for the African market.〔Banning Eyre interview (2002)
"Evolution de la musique congolaise moderne de 1930 à 1950" (2005)〕 Bowane had come to "''Leo''" in the mid 1940s, seen bands like that of Wendo, and returned to his home town to found his own big band, ''Victoria Coquilhatville''. In 1947 he returned Leopoldville and quickly rose in the music scene. While Both he and Wendo were singers and guitarists, Jéronimidis saw their strengths, putting Wendo on lead vocals and giving Bowane free range on his long cascading guitar lines. These long bridges, developed out of earlier Congolese folk styles, were called Sebene, reputedly because of the Seventh chords favoured by Congolese musicians. The shout "''Sebene!''" often perceded these long guitar solos, first popularised by Bowane.〔Gary Stewart. Rumba on the River: A History of the Popular Music of the Two Congos.
