How many sets, probably 4 not counting the street. As drawing room (2), connects to dining room (1) through an arch, which is closed with 4 panels, all but one fixed closed in winter, two left open in supper, and two more that can be opened to conbine the two rooms. The roof terrace can easily hold one, which works because it has windows from the cupula, having speakers on each level. Besides, the smaller of its two balconies, can hold a small band, already having a piano, organ, and drum set in place. However we have had dances in the street, 24 hour police notice required, permit easy to get. The street is two sets wide, and about 20 sets long between the cross streets. We usually put the band on a balcony across the street, if there is a crowd, if not, and strictly a neighborhood affair this space is limited by the band, tables, and a 4m diameter paella pan over an open fire..
