interlude

You could probably use "guitar and keyboard interludes" here.
This site in Italian and English, from a roundtable held by the Guido d'Arezzo Foundation, uses "stacchi" and "interludes" in this way.
It's a pdf file:

staccato?

short, detached notes, sounds as in staccato:
an arrangement made up of short detached notes?
Peer comment(s):

disagree Sarah Hilditch : Staccato refers to the way the notes are played, but it would not be right in this context

bridge or transition

Stacco comes from "staccare". In a musical sense this can either be a bridge or a transition of a few seconds help the listener move from one piece to another. For your text this is what it appears to be.

Otherwise, it can be a piece unto itself, or an interlude (as rightly indicated above).

"Staccato" is a term used for notes that are "Short, detached," sharply and definitely without slurring or blending from one to the next.
