One of the symbols are the lyre.

Apollo was especially known as the god of music. He is often depicted carrying a lyre, the beloved Greek musical instrument with seven strings. The lyre was also that important because it was used to accompany poetry recitations. Hermes, who invented this musical instrument, gave the lyre to Apollo. Apollo became a master in playing the lyre and he also taught mortals how to play it.

The others are the crow, the dolphin and the laurel tree.
