Use that \incipit command, and move as much as you can to the \layout
block to simplify the \score.
See the attached file for how I do it. One catch though: you said you'd
like the part names to be left-aligned. Sorry, I don't have time to set
that up right now.
Out of curiosity, what piece is that you are engraving there?
