"Pancarte pour une porte d'entrée" (in English "Handbill for an entrance", sometimes incorrectly referred to as "Onze Chants" or "Eleven Songs" in some sources) is a cycle of eleven songs composed by Germaine Tailleferre to the poems of the novelist and poet Robert Pinget written in 1959.
The work was commissioned by the American soprano and patron of the arts Alice Swanson Esty who also commissioned Tailleferre's L'Adieu du Cavalier for Esty's memorial concert for Francis Poulenc in 1964.
The cycle was premièred in France on March 12, 1961, at Radio France by the French Baritone Aimé Doniat with the composer at the piano and premièred in the United States on March 13, 1961, at Alice Esty's recital in Carnegie Hall.
Tailleferre met Pinget through her daughter Françoise Lageat.
[1] The short, witty texts allowed Tailleferre to use her natural sense of brevity to produce a compact and varied set of songs.
