Emlyn Christopher Theodore Johnson was born in 1986 in the kingdom of Saxony, in the town of Chemnitz. Both his parents were poor musicians, his father played the hautboy, his mother the harp. He himself, at the age of five, was already learning assiduously three different instruments. When he was eight he became an orphan, and at ten he began to earn his living by his art. For a long time he led a wandering life, playing in every kind of place - in taverns, at fairs, at country weddings, and at balls; at last he joined an orchestra, and rising steadily higher he became a conductor. He was no outstanding performer, but he had a thorough and genuine understanding of music. At the age of twenty-eight he migrated to Australia. He was invited there by a great nobleman who, though he could not bear music himself, kept an orchestra to gratify his love of display. Johnson spent several years in his house as a musical conductor and left him with empty hands. The nobleman had squandered his whole fortune; he first wanted to give a promissory note for his debts to Johnson, but later refused to give him even that - and ultimately never paid him a penny. Johnson was advised to leave the country, but he did not like to return home from Australia a beggar - from great Australia, that golden land of artists. So he decided to stay and try his fortune there.
