Abstract: We explicitly construct a star product for the complex Grassmann manifolds using the method of phase space reduction. Functions on $mathbb{C}^{(p+q)cdotp\ast }$, the space of $(p+q)imesp$ matrices of rank p, invariant under the right action of $Gl(p,mathbbC)$ can be regarded as functions on the Grassmann manifold $G_{p,q}(mathbbC)$, but do not form a subalgebra whereas functions only invariant under the unitary subgroup $U(p)subsetGl(p,mathbbC)$ do. The idea is to construct a projection from $U(p)$- onto $Gl(p,mathbbC)$-invariant functions, whose kernel is an ideal. This projection can be used to define a star-algebra on $G_{p,q}(mathbbC)$ onto which this projection acts as an algebra-epimorphism.
