Results are presented on a partial wave analysis of the ωη final state produced in π - p interactions at 18<space>GeV/c where ω->π + π - π 0 , π 0 ->2γ , and η->2γ. We observe the previously unreported decay mode ω(1650)->ωη and a new 1 + - meson state h 1 (1595) with a mass M=1594(+/-15) +10-60<space>MeV/c 2 and a width Γ=384(+/-60) +70-100<space>MeV/c 2 . The h 1 (1595) state exhibits resonant-like phase motion relative to the ω(1650).
