TORONTO – With every musical note, Madison Tevlin destroyed expectations.
“I wanted to inspire people a lot,” said Tevlin, a Toronto girl diagnosed with Down syndrome.
Almost all people with the genetic disorder “experience difficulties speaking clearly,” said Frank Buckley, CEO of Down Syndrome Educational International.
“Few get the opportunity to really practice or pursue singing, so few would be as talented as Madison,” Buckley said.
The 13-year-old’s cover of John Legend’s song “All Of Me” was posted to YouTube in January and has since garnered more than three million views.
“She is just showing people through this video what people with special needs can do,” said Madison’s father Matt Tevlin, who knew of his daughter’s love for music from an early age before she received vocal lessons.
