I have had some success doing this with Musescore with its web-based import service, accessible via the "File" menu's "Import PDF" option for scanning sheet music (pdf). Better the quality of the scan the better the chances. Or I have had good success with extracting the piano audio stem with SMP and then using that app to convert the piano to midi to be opened in Musecore. This web based options may require Pro Membership. Send me a link to the sheetmusic and I will see what Musescore can do.

I just checked and it appears the service is avialable free with an account.

Using MuseScore's Web-Based Import
Open: MuseScore 4 on your computer.
Go to File > Import PDF.
You will be redirected to the MuseScore.com import page.
Log in or create a free account: if prompted.
Upload: your PDF file to the site.
Wait for the conversion: to complete.
Download: the converted file.
Open: the downloaded file in MuseScore 4.
