My guesses so far:

Dawning of the Day: Group
Bonny Portmore: Really any solo or group is possible, even a fiddle solo
Mise Éire: Group or Megan (or maybe Muirgen?)
Wild Mountain Thyme: Group
Beeswing: Likely a solo, not sure for whom
Down by the Sally Gardens: Group or Megan
Where Sheep May Safely Graze: Group or Tara
Angel: A solo, but once again, I am not sure for whom. Maybe Susan.
The Lakes of Pontchartain: Could be a group song or a solo for any of the singers
May it Be: Group
The Calm of the Day / The Banshee: Tara
The Galway Shawl: Chloë or group
Black is the Colour: Megan or Muirgen

I like your guesses.

I'm imagining Beeswing as a Megan solo.

There could be some surprises though.

i think they'll do Black is the Colour as a group number based on its position in the track list. I can hear it as either a slow complex harmony or even as a rousing uptempo arrangement along the lines of the way Celtic Thunder does it (though CW will probably not do it with as much of a rock vibe).

I also see Black is the Color as a group song.
It's very interesting to see what were solos now become group numbers vice versa group numbers turn to solos.

Wild Mountain Thyme assuming is a group one.
All I keep thinking about is how different can it be done
I love The Divinas version of this song so much!

Chloë's Instagram stories today saw her and Susan, Megan and Muirgen busy filming an interview about the Postcards from Ireland DVD.

We can only assume that should someone fall sick while on tour, Susan will probably be their stand-in  :)

Since The Dawning of the Day is referred to as the first single from Prostcards from Ireland, do you think any others will be published before the album?

I think Wild Mountain Thyme could be next, it's a very popular song and at the moment I think they want to promote the songs that are sung as a group, I believe the solos will only be promoted on youtube next year, like Black is a Color (if it really is a Megan solo).

Ps: Next year the Lord of the Rings TV series will premiere and I believe the May It Be video will be promoted sometime soon, maybe when the trailer for the series airs later this year...

I do agree with Ênio's guesses, but I have other ones:

Dawning of the Day: Chloë, Megan, Muirgen and Tara
Bonny Portmore: Megan
Mise Éire: Chloë, Megan, Muirgen and Tara
Wild Mountain Thyme: Chloë, Megan, Muirgen, Susan and Tara
Beeswing: Muirgen, Tara and The Longest Johns
Down by the Sally Gardens: Chloë
Where Sheep May Safely Graze: Tara
Angel: Chloë
The Lakes of Pontchartain: Megan and Tara
May it Be: Susan
The Calm of the Day / The Banshee: Tara
The Galway Shawl: Muirgen
Black is the Colour: Chloë, Megan, Muirgen and Tara

I do not see the point of Susan being featured in the album and not be a part of a group number. I could be very wrong though, cause implying that Susan would be featured in a few or none of the concerts, would compromise a group number on tour... Let's wait and see  ;D ;D ;D

I do not see the point either unless Susan would perform the fan favorites on the DVD since those are home staples of Celtic Woman?

For some reason I doubt that Susan would be on Wild Mountain Thyme. I don't even know at this point if she is on the DVD at all.
If she only sang May it Be but did The Parting Glass for example.

If she was to do the fan favorites it be the first time we see four vocalists again and a first for The Parting Glass.

Unfortunately I don't think that Sue will be on the DVD. At the time (July) her second child had just been born, I think it was impossible for her to travel through Ireland with the girls. Not to mention that in none of the photos on the DVD she is present. So I think it's unlikely... very unlikely. But I'm just as happy just because she's on the album, and she's also going to be on tour next year at some shows that Chole won't be. Like last year's tour.

PS: Maybe the version of May It Be that will be on the DVD is the version of the Celebration Tour. I do not know...

Anything Susan at this point is a celebration itself just her able to participate again since her not being able to partake the castle outdooe taping of Ancient Land, at least we know both her and Lisa Lambe will represent a magnificient Christmas DVD Special instead at the Helix that was Home For Christmas!

The Celebration Tour version of May it Be was so iconic esp Mairead Carlin's rising soaring soprano harmony. I'm sure they could mimic the exact same with Murrgin but would it just been Chloe and not Susan or both some shape by this director.
Now that they label it as Susan, does it mean it will be just Susan? Like Lisa Kelly's version? Or will the other three girls still do harmony. If Susan did all the solos then it wouldn't be a group song.

To me May It Be as a group number was chilling..
I can't wait ecstatic to know Susan can shine this one but would it be different as to the Celebration Tour?

This came as a surprise but unless they chose to only put Susan on it as the lead like if Lisa Kelly still did it and the others did backdrop.
I will love it no matter what if the DVD had the celebration tour version then Mairead C would be the backdrop with Megan much deserved but I doubt that would happen. Anything's possible in this new direction. Lol. This version had one of the best Mairead C and Megan moments jaw dropping all of them!

Now that we know Sue will definitely be on the DVD as well I thought it may be just fun to guess around just what we think which of the 3-fan favorite song she will appear. We already have a source image with a backdrop.

For me since Susan sang an etheral May it Be, I'd assume
 in this indoor church like setting I'm guessing she'd do
 Amazing Grace with them. Earlier I had guessed
 Danny Boy or the other noted possibility of The Parting Glass.
I have no clue but it's fun to put our own coin in!
