XSLT: Reuse a template within another template

I have an XSLT file which displays the title and artist name of a CD. I have 3 templates, first template displays the title, second template displays the artist name, and third template contains a hidden table. The hidden table is displayed using a checkbox. I want to reuse the title and artist templates in order to show them as table data inside the third template when it is visible.

The problem is that the third template doesn't show on the browser because I don't know what to assign to the match attribute. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks.
