I'm not a text-nerd but I think there is "Adobe Garamond Pro" _and_
"Adobe Garamond Pro Italic", so
\override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic
is superfluous, if
\override LyricText #'font-name = #"Adobe Garamond Pro Italic"
is set.
At least I did a successful "womm"-test (works on my machine). :)
HTH,
