(how) can I get instrument names at the start of staves

Unfortunately you can’t. There already is a request for that feature in
our issue tracker, but it hasn’t been implemented yet.
The code (minimal, I hope)
Not quite minimal. Minimal would be
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.49"
\new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Violoncello e Contrabbasso"
} { 1 }
%%%%%%%%%%%%
You do have to find an appropriate indent value by trial and error.
However, you /can/ override instrument names’ self-alignment, if you like:
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.49"
<<
\new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Flauti"
} { 1 }
\new Staff \with {
instrumentName = "Violoncello e Contrabbasso"
} { 1 }
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Staff
\override InstrumentName.self-alignment-X = #LEFT
}
indent = 50
}
%%%%%%%%%%
Ultimately, I’d certainly advise you to use
instrumentName = \markup {
\center-column {
"Violoncello e"
"Contrabbasso"
}
}
or something similar, to avoid the need for such a huge indent.
Best, Simon
