For every semisimple coadjoint orbit \hat{\mathcal{O}} of a complex connected semisimple Lie group \hat{G} , we obtain a family of \hat{G} -invariant products \hat{*}_\hbar on the space of holomorphic functions on \hat{\mathcal{O}} . For every semisimple coadjoint orbit \mathcal{O} of a real connected semisimple Lie group G , we obtain a family of G -invariant products *_\hbar on a space \mathcal{A}(\mathcal{O}) of certain analytic functions on \mathcal{O} by restriction. \mathcal{A}(\mathcal{O}) , endowed with one of the products *_\hbar , is a G -Fréchet algebra, and the formal expansion of the products around \hbar=0 determines a formal deformation quantization of \mathcal{O} , which is of Wick type if G is compact. Our construction relies on an explicit computation of the canonical element of the Shapovalov pairing between generalized Verma modules and complex analytic results on the extension of holomorphic functions.
