I tend to like the older names, but when I get to the basso line,
adding three names (Violincello, Violone, Fagatto) and trying to fit
all of that next to the single bass stave and then making it layout
nicely, well, not so easy.
Several solutions:
1) just call the bass line Basso, as the composer undoubtedly did,
and mark any solos (as: bsn. or senza bsn.) as measure or note
expressions. The exact variety of instruments required for this line
will be clear in the extracted parts, and can also be listed/explained
in the instrumentation list that precedes the first page of score.
2) Cram the three names onto the first page, extending a little
above and a little below the staff. On all subsequent pp. use the
abbreviations Vc, Vne, Fag all on one line.
