Hann fekk diplom ved Trinity College i piano i 1967 og ein bachelor i musikk ved Edinburgh University i 1969. Han studerte så ved Royal Academy of Music med Alan Bush og James Blades. Han var ein prisvinnande student, mellom anna fekk han i 1970 Royal Philharmonic Society sin pris for orkesterverket Xumbu-Ata, som vart sendt av BBC. Pert komponerte òg Missa Festiva for kor og orkester, Omega Centauri for kammerorkester og lydband, Sun Dragon for stort orkester og lydband, Sonores for solopiano, Andromeda Link for solofiolin og lydband, Eoastrion Op.30 for klarinett, piano og lydband, The Rising of the Moon for stort orkester, The Beltane Rites for orkester (bestilt av BBC), The Ancient Kindred for orkester, Ancient Rites for kor og orkester, Chromosphere for fem musikarar og lydband, The Ultimate Decay for lydband, The Book of Love for perkusjon og lydband, og musikk for Young Vic-teaterproduksjonen av Macbeth, Peter Pan og Stormen.[2][3]
Som rockemusikar var Pert to år (1970–1972) med den japanske perkusjonisten Stomu Yamashta som medlem i ensembla hans «East Wind» og «Red Buddha Theatre». I 1971 starta han gruppa Come to the Edge med Robin Thompson og Andrew Powell. Etter personellendringar i 1973 vart dette bandet Sun Treader (eller Suntreader) og spelte inn to album. I 1977 vart Pert med jazzrockbandet Brand X for det andre albumet deira, og skreiv tre songar for albumet Masques. Han vart verande med bandet, og turnerte mykje, fram til 1979.
