 note = {This study presents a catalog of articles from U.S. newspapers related to the activities of Rudy Wiedoeft (1893-1940) to clarify the development of the saxophone in American popular culture and depict some aspects of Wiedoeft's performance activities. In the 1920s, in the United States, a social phenomenon called the saxophone craze was taking place; Wiedoeft is said to have been the driving force behind this phenomenon. He took the world by storm with his skillful saxophone performances, including triple tonguing, slap tonguing, and techniques that imitated laughter and crying. However, few people now know of his existence, and although there are various biographies of his notable activities and milestones, detailed information based on reliable sources is scarce. Therefore, this study depicts a detailed portrait of the musician by accumulating and analyzing data from newspaper articles. Researchers extracted articles containing the words “Rudy Wiedoeft” up to 1940, the year of Wiedoeft's death, using Library of Congress archives, resulting in 374 articles related to Wiedoeft's activities in 92 newspapers from 41 states. The articles can be broadly categorized into four groups, namely, advertising, criticism, general, and other. It is a well-known fact that Wiedoeft's fame is due to his musical recordings. Newspaper articles confirmed that the Edison Company, which wanted to popularize the phonograph, and Wiedoeft, who wanted to promote himself to the world, worked together to achieve their mutual goals. Wiedoeft was active in both solo activities, recording many of his own compositions and performing them live, and groups such as Rudy Wiedoeft's Californians, which mainly recorded dance music. Furthermore, he formed a duo with Ernest Hare, a baritone singer, and with George Hamilton Green, a xylophonist, in keeping with the fashion of the time. The actual state of his collaboration with the Edison Company and the connection between his musical group's activities and dance in popular culture have not been explored until now. In this study, the authors present detailed data on Wiedoeft's activities through the cataloging of archival articles in the Library of Congress and shed light on many aspects of Wiedoeft’s activities, particularly those related to his musical recordings.},
