X - this symbol is very popular in Lithuania's folk ornaments. It expresses the unity of the two: the sky and the earth, light and dark, past and future. In Lithuania's ancient culture this symbol was magic and expressed happiness and harmony.
For the group this symbol signified the unity of the old and modern music, based on Lithuanian folk music.„We call our music improfolk. Our gaul is to create and present music connected with our past". The group uses a lot of Lithuanian folk instruments such as zither (kankles), multi-pipe whistles, reed pipe, dulcimer, also a guitar, a violin, drums and national percussion.
Symbol's group began playing together in 1988 in Vilnius Art Academy. The group took part in the International Youth Music Festival ,,Lituanica'88" in Vilnius and some festivals and concerts in Lithuania. The group took part in the festival „Poza Kontrola" in Poland also in the World Lithuanian Youth Days.
