Dalibor Davidović (born 3 January 1972 in Našice) is a Croatian musicologist and university professor.

Davidović studied musicology at the Zagreb Music Academy (B.A. and M.A.) and obtained his PhD from the University of Hamburg.

His principal area of research is systematic musicology. His writings are focused on the aesthetic problem of listening and on the epistemological questions of the music studies.
