Österreich 1 (Ö1) is an Austrian radio station: one of the four national networks operated by Austria's public broadcaster ORF. It focuses on classical music and opera, jazz, documentaries and features, news, radio plays and dramas, Kabarett, quiz shows, and discussions.

Ö1's programming mix of information, culture, music, literature, education, science and religion is relayed worldwide (with just a few changes from the domestic schedule) as Radio Österreich 1 International, aimed at Austrians living abroad as well as a global audience interested in Austria. Ö1 broadcasts news in German, English and French.

History

The station was launched by the ORF broadcaster on 1 October 1967 to a new numbered system, together with the pop music station Ö3 and the regional stations of the Ö2 group.

In 1964 a petition for a national referendum had preceded, whereby more than 800,000 citizens declared themselves against ideological appointments of key positions within the public broadcasting service by the Austrian grand coalition government of Chancellor Alfons Gorbach (ÖVP) and Vice-Chancellor Bruno Pittermann (SPÖ) according to the Austrian Proporz system. Two years later, a legal regulation of a nonpartisan broadcasting was passed by the National Council parliament, entailing a relaunch of the ORF radio stations.

Ö1 was designated to comply with the public educational mandate (Bildungsauftrag) and to offer a broadly cultural program for an educated, artistically inclined audience. Up to today, one focus is on news broadcasts like one-hour Mittagsjournal ("Noon Journal") or Morgenjournal ("Morning Journal"), launched in the course of the coverage of the 1968 Prague Spring. Beside established programmes like the Salzburger Nachtstudio science show first aired in 1956, Ö1 since the 1970s also broadcasts radio documentaries (Hörbilder), music programmes beyond the strictly classical canon (Pasticcio, Spielräume), and several recurring reports on everyday life in a feuilleton style like Der Schalldämpfer by Axel Corti (discontinued upon his death in 1993). Similar to other classical music radio stations, Ö1 has to bear with the tension between an elitist "Hofrat widow broadcaster" and a "Classic FM" popularisation, with the station's style and scheduling a matter of ongoing debates.

Operation

RadioKulturhaus entrance, Vienna

Ö1 broadcasts from Funkhaus Wien on Argentinierstrasse in the Wieden district of Vienna. The current station identification was composed by the jazz musician Werner Pirchner in 1994, the slogan Ö1 gehört gehört—a pun on "to be heard" in German conforming with "ought to"—was created by the author Wolf Haas.

Since 2010 a 75min altered block of programming is broadcast every morning on the shortwave frequencies of former Radio Österreich International as Ö1 International. Ö1 internet radio can also be listened to live on the ORF website through streaming audio, the programmes can also be heard for a week after broadcast at no charge. Several are available as downloads and podcasts.

Ö1 operates the RadioKulturhaus venue in Funkhaus Wien including the KulturCafé coffee house. It also participates in the annual Donauinselfest music festival.
