Much of Maleingreau's outlook was directed toward the past. He was devoted to Bach, and most of his works are based on plainchant and intended for use in church. He also wrote programmatic music, however, including his organ symphonies. He shows the influence of Franck in his cyclic forms and chromaticisms, but sometimes employs impressionistic harmonies. He wrote, among other organ works, Symphony de Noël (1919), Symphony de la Passion (1920), Symphony de l’Agneau Mystique (1922), 7 diptyques, 19 masses, 153 preludes, Opus sacrum I–III, 6 suites, and 3 triptyques.
