Here's some text based on the given key-value pair:

It could be nice to mention this in the introduction.

Lastly, listening again to recordings of 'Time Remembered' by Bill Evans on YouTube or Spotify might provide you with ideas and inspiration for your own version. By switching between open and closed positions, your hand won't have to move much, which creates a rich sound.

Also notice that Bill uses many major#11 voicings throughout the tune - think of them as major chords but with an augmented 5th (major third) instead of the regular minor or perfect fifth. For example, take a look at bars 3-8 where he plays Cmaj9 followed by Aaug7.

In essence, you're just vamping on Bminor9 and F#min9 chord progressions that are a whole tone apart from each other (the same distance as the augmented sixth interval). So try playing along with this progression: vamp on B minor 9th for four bars; then switch to E flat major ninth over an underlying dominant seventh or extended altered II7/5(b5) chord, which is just three semitones away - C#m9. Repeat.

Finally, always finish a piece strong by copying the last few measures of the tune and using both melody AND harmony together in your final bar(s). You could also try adding some improvised vamp-like lines to lead into or out from under the main theme at various points throughout your arrangement.
