COMPASS is a fixed-target experiment at the CERN SPS, which investigates the structure and spectroscopy of hadrons. In 2004, a first run with a 190 GeV/c π− beam took place, using nuclear targets. Diffractive reactions in COMPASS provide clean access to meson resonances with masses below 2.5 GeV/c2, where candidates for spin-exotic states (e. g. 1−+) have been reported in the past. Within a few days of data taking, a competitive number of events on lead with π−π−π+ final states were recorded. In this talk we will report on the results of a first partial wave analysis of this data set.
