Since founded, LA MORRA has researched, prepared and performed a number of concert programs covering a wide range of styles. The main strands of the ensemble's work have been:

- polyphony, northwards and southwards of the Alps, c1400-early 1500s
- 'ars nova' and 'ars subtilior' of the 14th century
- musical culture of Central and Eastern Europe, c1400-c1500
- textless and instrumental music before c1500
- Latin and vernacular monody and polyphony c1200-c1300 (to lesser extend)

LA MORRA's concert programs fall within two categories: (1) freely developed thematic creations, and (2) thematic creations tailored to the event's topic or motto.

Presenters considering offering a concert of LA MORRA in their events are strongly encouraged to look at the following pre-configured programs proposals first:

ARS AMANDI
Courtly Love Song, c1200-c1500
(4 musicians)

FLOUR DE BEAULTÉ
Late Medieval Songs From Cyprus
(5 musicians)

PIÙ CHIAR' CHE'L SOL
Pearls Of The Fourteenth-Century Italian Music
(6 musicians)

CONCENTUS ANGELORUM
A Celebration Of The Northern-European Polyphony, 1400-1500
(8 musicians)

Requests for custom-made concert programs are welcome. Please describe your idea and we will be happy to prepare for you a program proposal including calculation of costs.

PLEASE NOTE: developing new programs is a time-consuming process; also, you want to ensure ensemble's availability; therefore, please submit your request at least 12 months prior to the event. Requests on shorter notice will be considered but will only be accepted if availability and time capacities are sufficient. An extra fee may apply.

Among commisioners of our custom-made programs were:

- Festival van Vlaanderen (various branches), Belgium
- Organisatie Oude Muziek, The Netherlands
- Schola Cantorum Basiliensis / Freunde Alter Musik Basel, Switzerland
- Musica, Belgium
- Concertgebouw Brugge / Groeningen Museum, Belgium
- the town of Mechelen, Belgium
- Embassy of Switzerland in the United Kingdom

Programs were presented in connection with such events as:

- exhibition "Holbein in England" at Tate Britain, London
- event "Mechelen 2005: Stad in Vrouenhanden"
- Day of Early Music in Alden Biesen
