Johan Ekeblad mentions the Italian musicians in this letter of December 1/11 (Old Style) to his father Christoffer Ekeblad:


The letter summary:

... [Stockholm] 27 Nov. 1652. A. Oxenstjerna vill göra Sverge profit af Engelska kriget. — Ankomna Italienska musikanter. — Förslag att angripa Norrge och Cronenberg.

With modernised spelling:

... [Stockholm] 27 november 1652. Axel Oxenstierna vill göra Sverige profit av engelska kriget. — Ankomna italienska musikanter. — Förslag att angripa Norge och Cronenberg.

English translation (my own):

... Stockholm, November 27, 1652. Axel Oxenstierna wants to make Sweden profit from the English war. — Italian musicians have arrived. — Proposal to attack Norway and Cronenberg.
