This essay is my interpretation of the gender negotiation of the Finnish composer Kaija Saariaho in Finland. I demonstrate, by examining the public's reception of Kaija Saariaho and her own experiences, how the gender negotiation of gender identity and the presentation of a woman composer take place, as ongoing processes, between the realms of conventional otherness (the socially constructed category of women composers) and real-life experiences of the individual. The analysis is done through the theoretical lenses offered by DE LAURETIS (1988) CITRON (1993), FOUCAULT (1984) and the epistemology of nomadic transitions by BRAIDOTTI (1991, 1994). I claimed that Saariaho has negotiated her gender not “within” the male-dominated system but “with” it, defining a new gender subject position: the position of the nomadic subject.
