We investigate the geometric interpretation of quantized Nambu-Poisson
structures in terms of noncommutative geometries. We describe an extension of
the usual axioms of quantization in which classical Nambu-Poisson structures
are translated to n-Lie algebras at quantum level. We demonstrate that this
generalized procedure matches an extension of Berezin-Toeplitz quantization
yielding quantized spheres, hyperboloids, and superspheres. The extended
Berezin quantization of spheres is closely related to a deformation
quantization of n-Lie algebras, as well as the approach based on harmonic
analysis. We find an interpretation of Nambu-Heisenberg n-Lie algebras in terms
of foliations of R^n by fuzzy spheres, fuzzy hyperboloids, and noncommutative
hyperplanes. Some applications to the quantum geometry of branes in M-theory
are also briefly discussed.Comment: 43 pages, minor corrections, presentation improved, references adde
