Matthew Morrison Single Featured on GLEE's Season Finale

GLEE star and Broadway veteran Matthew Morrison drops he debut solo album on May 10, and according to the Hollywood Reporter, GLEE's two-part season finale will feature a single from it. Morrison told THR, "It was going to be just a big dance piece with me doing this big dance number, but they said, ‘We want you to sing it and make it a big moment.' "

GLEE creator Ryan Murphy added, "It's about aspiration," Murphy said. "It worked because we wanted to do a scene where Matt goes into a Broadway hall and sings something alone. Plus, Matt is such a great team player and he's done so much for different Glee charities."

It was at Lincoln Center where he also created the role of Fabrizio in the musical The Light in the Piazza, for which he was also nominated for a Tony Award.
