Works in the public domain have no copyright restrictions. Note also that works outside of the protection of copyright law have no copyright restrictions. For example, works of the US government are not copyrighted under US laws, nor are works that are not creative or original or which have not been "fixed in any tangible form", or which are merely ideas, principles, systems, functions, processes, concepts or discoveries.

Are there no copyright restrictions if you plan on using a public domain music sheet available in your country to play and create something with that music LIKE the Pachelbel Kanon?

If the music is within the public domain, then it's by definition not subject to copyright restrictions. There may be copyright issues in other countries, however, since the exact terms of copyright vary from location to location. Also, you may want to consult an attorney to be certain that the work really is in the public domain (there are occasionally misunderstandings about what that term actually means).
