The Frankfurt Radio Big Band, with saxophonist Mark Turner, posted the tune ‘Sonnet For Stevie’ recently. It is a Turner composition, arranged by conductor Christine Jenson. This band is also known as the ‘hr Big Band.’
This is from an almost 2 hour concert available here on YouTube, from 9 March 2023. The show is being posted song-by-song, evidently.
