Jerry Ball

Saxophonist

Saxophonist Jerry Ball is a well known professional musician on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. With a masters degree in music education, a three year tour of duty in the Navy Show Band, twenty five years of teaching, and over 35 years as a professional musician, Jerry has established himself as a band leader as well as a sensational sax player. He has performed with The Temptations, The Four Tops, Aretha Franklin, Frankie Avalon, Ben E. King, Mary Wilson and The Supremes, Fabian, Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, The Tuscaloosa Horns and numerous others. Jerry is a tremendously versatile sax player with entertainment abilities covering all styles of music.

For two years, Jerry worked on his first sacred music CD that was a culmination of a lifetime of inspiration. He entitled it "My Heart Rejoices" because it expressed his testimony of what the Lord has done in his life. Jerry says, "The Lord has taught me to trust and acknowledge Him in all things. He has been faithful in sustaining me as He promised, and he continues to pour out His blessings." Jerry believes that music is a significant part of worship and helps to offer spiritual refreshment for dry and thirsty souls. He knows that it is a God-given talent, not just a technical one, to be able to inspire people to worship through music.

After the success of his first CD, and the wonderful reception at the many performances across the South, the Lord continued Jerry's ministry with a second collection of Christian music entitled “My Redeemer Lives”. Jerry says, “I love the Lord and am humbled that He in return loves me unconditionally and leads me each day into greater fulfillment and purpose for Him. I pray that this music will warm your heart as you continue your spiritual journey.”

After many requests for a Christmas CD, Jerry put together a collection of Christmas music that expresses the true gift of Christmas, Jesus Christ. He felt the voice of the soprano sax exemplified the beautiful meaning of the selections. Jerry says, "It is my sincere desire that the listener will experience the peace and joy of Christmas through the lyrical sounds of this recording."

“Forgetting the obstacles that hold me back and reaching forward to what
lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of God’s upward call in
Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13b-14
