Złota Tarka (Golden Washboard) is the International Festival of Traditional Jazz "Old Jazz Meeting - Złota Tarka" (Polish: Międzynarodowy Festiwal Jazzu Tradycyjnego "Old Jazz Meeting - Złota Tarka"), the jazz contest during the festival, and the award in Poland. The name comes from the washboard as a musical instrument in traditional music. The festival traces from the award suggested to the Club of Traditional Jazz by the student cultural center Klub Stodoła in Warsaw.[1]
This is one of the oldest musical festivals in Poland.[2] The first award was given out during the Jazz on the Oder (pl:Jazz nad Odrą) festival in Wrocław in 1965. The history of the award and the festival consists of two periods separated by a hiatus: 1967–1987 in Warsaw and 1994-present in Iława.[1] The name "Złota Tarka" was acquired in 1973 ("Old Jazz Meeting 'Złota Tarka'").[2]
Currently, it is partly financed by the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage.[1][2]
2018 was the 48th installment of the festival/contest.[3]
