I used this tune to practice reharmonization. Transcribing a tune is one thing, doing a reharmonization is another thing which needs regular and constant training. I am aware of having used too many chord alterations leading to a hymn like presentation. It was a trial nothing more.
For those who like the tune I highly recommend to listen to the Bill Evans and George Shearing renditions. They are totally different but fabulous each.

Great rendition and reharmonization. I’m jealous
Sounding great @cornelius.moser
I think you strike a nice balance with your voicings and reharmonisation.
I like how you start by letting the melody line sing and then layer in the reharmonisations as the melody/sections repeat. It’s a logical way to structure the arrangement. The block chords also sound great.
Thanks for sharing the links to the songs too.
