need help/capacitors and AC

I am currently designing a MMC, but I need the right capacitor for 
the job. I am going with cornell-dubilier caps, but my recent 
calculations said that I would require around 1200 caps for a MMC.

My question is how does a capacitor react to different frequencies of 
current? the cornell-dubilier web page says that the cap can handle 
500Vac at 60Hz. if my circuit for my coil operates on a much higher 
frequency will I require a higher ac voltage rating or a lower one?

last question but equally relevant. My NST's output is 15,000 volts, 
is that the voltage between both output nodes or is 15,000 the 
voltage between one node and ground?

Thanks,
Matthew Boddicker
