Round Three - Il Balen - Herlea - Enkbhat - Merrill


Vocal control - Two-way tie - Herlea and Enkbhat

Good tone - Three-way tie - Herlea - Enkbhat - Merrill

Enunciation - Edge to Enkhbhat

Pronunciation - Edge to Enkhbhat

Musical phrasing - Two-way tie - Herlea and Enkbhat

Voice suitability - Three-way tie - Herlea - Enkbhat - Merrill

Versatility - Two-way tie - Herlea and Enkbhat

Performance that I personally enjoyed the most - Herlea although if given the chance, I would have split my vote between him and Enkbhat


On a side note - I would like to request that no performer whose last name involves the letters - n - k - b - and - h - in that particular order ever be entered in a competition again as it took me nearly 30 minutes to type this review thanks to my continually misspelling "Enkbhat" and thus having to correct it 10 separate times. Note to self - "Hey, genius, try to remember the "copy and paste" method approximately 29 minutes sooner than you did just now..." - Reply from self - "Thanks, I'll try to keep that in mind next time unless I forget to do so much in the way that I did just now - Maybe you should think about writing "use copy and paste" on a post-it note and stick it on your monitor, Einstein..."

I regret profoundly to have to tell you this, but the correct spelling, according to my research, is "Enkhbat." Not only that, but "Enkhbat" appears to be a shortened form of his original name, "Enkhbatyn." He probably shortened it so that we could spell it more easily. :p

Now for his first name, Amartüvshin... How about "Marty"?
It... gets... even... worse... His name is actually "Enkhbatyn Amartüvshin" although apparently he is also known as "Amartuvshin Enkhbat"...

He probably alternates them depending upon which name is written on the arrest warrant...

In this Mongolian name, the given name is Amartüvshin. Enkhbat is a patronymic, not a family name.
