Even for the most unmusical, I think listening to lots of music of the genre in question should help somewhat in playing musically. A lot of musical style is unsaid but even looking at the music from an entirely technical perspective (note-lengths, dynamics), one should be able to glean how to correctly interpret some markings. Is there an example of the effect you're looking for in another piece? Would having something marked "play freely" help?
There have been times I have also overmarked music, actually writing out the whole trill, in order to relay the desired effect, but that's fairly unproductive.
Seeing these types of problems is why I have hardly ventured into French baroque, as lots of that music is all about the feels ... imagine playing jazz as written. Swing it, swing it!!!! Ugh! Yeah, ask them to think like a jazz player! :-P
