Beatrice (or simply Ricse, sometimes referred to as Nagy Feró és a Beatrice or Nagyferó és a Beatrice) is a Hungarian rock band. It was founded in 1969 as a women's band, and played mostly cover songs. In 1971, Nagy Feró joined the band as a frontman. In the following years, the members were gradually replaced, and from 1974 they began to write their own songs in the then popular glam rock style. In order to get a record deal the band became oriented towards disco music from 1976.
The group disbanded in 1977, and in the following year, Beatrice was reunited as a rock band by Nagy Feró with bassist Miklóska Lajos, guitarist Lugosi László, keyboardist Gidófalvy Attila, and drummer Donászy Tibor, and started playing rock in a similar style to AC/DC. At this time they wrote songs that have since become classics, about the hopelessness of everyday life, such as Jericho, the Metropolitan Wolf, and the Angel Land. The party-state culture policy consistently hampered the "unmanageable" band, which eventually disbanded in 1981.
Beatrice, after its reunion in 1987, became a success in an atmosphere of regime change. In 1988, they self-published their first album. Their second album, Utálom az egész XX. századot (1991), was featured on the Mahasz disk sales top list for 40 weeks, at some point reaching first place. Beatrice's biggest hit to date is 8 óra munka. During this period, their concerts would all sell out. By 1994, the band was practically depleted: besides Nagy Feró, only guitarist Brúger László remained in the band. For this reason, Nagy Feró reorganized the orchestra, which was from 1994 officially called New Beatrice, and had a constantly changing lineup. The "new" attribute was later abandoned, however, and in recent years their concerts have often been advertised as "Nagy Feró és a Beatrice". Released in 2010, the concert video of the band's 30th anniversary was ranked 1st in the Mahasz DVD list.
