Italian term or phrase: fraseggi

This term is used a couple of times in the source text and I think I understand what is meant, but I just can't think of the right term in English.

The only thing I can come up with is "riff" i.e. a guitar riff, but can that also be used in reference to a Hammond organ?

Here are the examples of how the word it is used in the source text:

(NOME DELLA CANZONE) brilla per i ***fraseggi*** blues della National Resophonic di Bonham;
