Career
Pitera gained his popularity for his extensive vocal range and his unusual feminine falsetto, as he first demonstrated in his most popular video, a cover of "A Whole New World", from the movie Aladdin where he sings both Aladdin and Jasmine's parts.
In 2011, Pitera released "One Man Disney Movie" using a "'Brady Bunch'-style grid" to perform "an eight-minute-plus mashup of songs from various big-screen musical fairy tales, from "Beauty and the Beast" to "Enchanted," taking on the roles of the heroes, heroines, villains, sidekicks and their furry choirs."
In 2012, Pitera released a medley cover of Andrew Lloyd Webber songs entitled "One Man Phantom of the Opera." This was followed in August of the same year by "One Man Les Miserables".
In 2013, Pitera took part in singing alongside America's Got Talent Winners "Forte", Nathan Pacheco, and composer Tim Janis at Carnegie Hall in "The Music of Hope" to benefit Kate Winslet's charity for autism. The show was sponsored by "The Golden Hat Foundation which is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to changing the way people with autism are perceived by shining a light on their abilities and emphasizing their potential". All profits from the concert were donated directly to the Golden Hat Foundation. Up to this date, he has several viral videos and many fans on YouTube.
