Maybe.Copyright is the protection against artistic works(not inventions,this is a misconception,patent offices protect inventions),and over the years people have been finding ways to eliminate it.One example is the pirating of artistic works(Movies,Muisc,etc.).Personally,i think it should be replaced with Creative Commons,as the creator of the artistic work can decide if it can be edited,distributed,credits should be given to the creator,etc.

What are copyright laws for recording and selling classical music performed from sheet music?

That's a tough question, and I hope I can help a little bit. I believe if the classical music is part of public domain then it should not be bound by copyright laws. If the music is transcribed to sheet from the public domain version then it should have no restrictions. If the music has been altered from public domain it may hold restrictions against it. As always the best idea would be to talk to an entertainment lawyer that works with copyright laws on a regular basis. If you plan on doing it on a large scale, get mechanical licensees for the songs. It won't cost an arm and a leg, and you will probably make well over cost to ensure you don't get into legal trouble.
