Kutsch-Riemens suggests a birthdate of around 1870. Sala appears to have been active particularly in comprimario roles through at least 1911. 1n 1910, Giovanni Martinelli, basically then unknown, replaced Sala in a 1910 Teatro dal Verme performance of the Verdi Requiem . Martinelli’s sucess that evening led to his operatic debut there three weeks later as Verdi’s Ernani. Sala, however, experienced success by participating in the Teatro dal Verme world premiere of Zandonai’s Conchita and the Teatro Costanzi Italian premiere of Puccini’s La Fanciulla del West , both in 1911.

He was soloist at the Roxy Theater for two years and was often heard on the radio. In 1930 he won the Caruso American Memorial Foundation vocal competition which allowed him to study in Italy. There he made his debut at La Scala in 1933 as Sparafucile in Rigoletto with Dal Monte and Gigli, also appearing as Amonasro in Aida . In 1935 he was on the roster of La Fenice, singing Oroveso to Rosa Raisa’s Norma, as well as Alvise in La Gioconda and Jacobo in the now forgotten Baldo by Giovanni Cigona.
