when i heard this melody, i immediately recognized it from Schubert's unifinished Symphony 8, second movement, i am afraid that i cant harmonize this, since i have heard the symphony already, but, it's an interesting choice, it's interesting to hear all of your variations on it, but it's definitely from Symphony 8
Well, luckily I'm not familiar with this melody - didn't recognize it - and started work on it last night before reading the thread - (thankfully).

Here's mine. Although it looks like the jazz thing has been done already, mine is a little more of an old school treatment. That pesky little A natural was no fun at first, but after I figured out what do with it (that one measure and the ones adjacent to it took about an hour), I've decided that without it, I would have ended up with something not nearly as nice. The second A natural in the ornament was more of a fly in the ointment. I consider it the weakest part of this reharm.
