  For arbitrary compact quantizable Kaehler manifolds it is shown how a natural
formal deformation quantization (star product) can be obtained via
Berezin-Toeplitz operators. Results on their semi-classical behaviour (their
asymptotic expansion) due to Bordemann, Meinrenken and Schlichenmaier are used
in an essential manner. It is shown that the star product is null on constants
and fulfills parity. A trace is constructed and the relation to deformation
quantization by geometric quantization is given.
