I learned most of what I know about ornamentation in piano lessons. Once I had the basic outline of performance practice for a particular time period, most of what we focused on was context and interpretation. That is the background upon which I draw the most when working out pieces on my own or playing with others.

Thanks for the link, David D. That's a good overview.
