Jazz Theory From Basic To Advanced Study By Dariusz Terefenko Options

Has anyone used this and its accompanying work book?

It's well recommended on r/MusicTheory on Reddit.

I'm not sure I've got what it takes to go through it as a disciplined study and it's not exactly cheap.

Even thugh I subscribed to your channel I forgot about the Ted stuff. They are really nice and accessibly lessons.

I downloaded his V system once, and that's just as overwhelming as Chord Chemisty even with some more structure in place.

Ted is always my argument against people that say Kayne is a musical genius.

I don't "use" the V system. I understand essentially what it is but I don't need to classify things like that to play.
Ted was into organization. He loved to make lists. Lists of chords, lists of common chord progressions, lists of how many times a composer or band used the same chord progression, lists of musical styles, etc.
They say that the V system was going to be a book ... maybe, maybe not. A lot of the stuff on the website is Ted's personal notes to himself.

It can be totally overwhelming especially when it's presented all at once, which is now how we get it since it's all been collected and posted. It was never meant to be that way.

That's why I do those 'quick' lessons on my YT channel. I just want to present some of the material and show that it's not all inaccessible or 'advanced'.

*The gold in Chord chemistry are the chapters that proceed the chord dictionary. In those chapters he actually uses many of the voicings in musical contexts.

Per usual KEN is spot on IMHO. Take it in small chunks and put it in musical context. Let your ears lead you and look at your fingers then deconstruct.
