You need to switch the IGBTs at high frequency (few kHz) and modulate the switching pattern so you can use a low pass filter to regenerate something resembling a sinusoid.
Power electronics is not the friendliest place to learn basic electronics design - if you get it wrong, it is both expensive and dangerous when it goes bang. You sound like you need to buy a few good books on the subject, and then apply what you have learned. At the low power level you are considering, much of the information relating to Class D amplifier design will be relevant to your application.
