This chart seems a mess..assuming this is the Brubeck transcription ? I suppose the other one should be labeled the Miles version.

Do you mean for the chord to contain both the G and Ab as in C-7b13
Or to raise the G to a G# as in C-7#5 ?
In the latter case you could try Ebsus/C

no the the chord is a C-7#5 . I was just thinking the b13 might be close enough but it didn't work.The melody note is an Ab half note going to a Gb half note (F13b9)Do you mean for the chord to contain both the G and Ab as in C-7b13
Or to raise the G to a G# as in C-7#5 ?
In the latter case you could try Ebsus/C
so I assume the voicing would be fourths Bb. Eb. Ab . going to (Eb)A D F#
I have 3 different charts of this tune. There is no C-7+5. It is either C-7(b5), B13/D# or F7(+9), depending on whose chart you're looking at. The Hal Leonard might be a misprint.

You would think Hal Leonard would check these things.? I don’t think something as odd as this would be a missprint.
Usually these HL real books try to leave room for some creative interpretation. The use of all the 13th chords with specific alterations is unusual , unlike the Chuck Sher books. I think it must be a transcription from one of Brobecks versions.
I just checked Jamie Aebersold volume 105. Which has Brubeck on piano so it should be canon.
Brubeck has an F7#9 and a B7 in the seventh bar . The same bar in the last Asection has an F7#9#5 B7 / Bb7sus. / Eb-7 / Eb-7. /. So two bars of the Eb-7 added to the end. Last A = 10bars

This is from the Jamie Aebersold volume 105 book. Bruebeck is actually playing the piano on the tracks so I assume the charts are canon. I double checked the changes with the 1956 album live at Newport.

There are many different versions of that tune. Brubeck usually plays a F7#9#5 at the 7th bar, but other artists might play some other chords (Miles, etc.). The book should specify if it's from a version other than the composer's. C-7#5 at that bar is unlikely but in iReal Pro, it could be written as a AbM9/C. There are many other important chord types missing in the chord library that can't be reproduced by combination of slash chords. I would suggest to add those first in priority
