OK.   So a good solution might be to define a simple template and then 
call it, so that my titleInfo template becomes something like the 
following?

<xsl:template match="mods:titleInfo[not(@type='abbreviated')]" 
mode="bibliography">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="../mods:relatedItem[@type='host']">
      <span class="title">
	<xsl:call-template select="title-before"/>
	<xsl:apply-templates select="mods:title"/>
	<xsl:apply-templates select="mods:subTitle"/>
	<xsl:call-template select="title-after"/>
      </span>
    </xsl:when>
     ...
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>
